Yes and no. Both keep stuff as normal files, but often as diffs and
BDB databases. You really need to go through the appropriate client
interface to extract data from it meaningfully. Also, you don't
normally work directly on the repository but on a locally checked out
version. This is what makes concurrent edits possible. SVN is
typically implemented as a WebDAV service (possibly using SSL for
security), and you can simply mount the webdav point as you would any
other webdav file system. I guess you could check out a version
remotely, then mount that area via webdav. Not sure what you'd gain
though.
