It keeps that information in a cache separate from the checkout path,
and appears to keep it in a manner that makes it efficient for svk to
compare checkout paths and repository state, but perhaps not easily
grokkable by something that isn't svk.

Essentially, the checkout path looks like you did an 'export' to it;
the difference is, svk keeps an association between checkout paths and
its cache.
