Leif, Subversion isn't a feature of OmniOutliner. Subversion is a  
revision control system that's used to keep track of changes in files  
-- typically software source code.

_The_ reference on Subversion can be read at

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/

Because we sometimes store Outliner files in our own SVN repository  
we made sure that Outliner preserves special .svn metadata folders  
that can be found inside of folders stored in SVN. Without that  
support it would be very tedious to maintain your Outliner files in  
SVN. Outliner will also preserve CVS metadata.
