--- Comment #1 from Warren Block <wblock@FreeBSD.org> ---
One problem is that the svnlite man pages have never been fixed.  They all
refer to svn: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D191163

svnlite was an import of an external utility into base.  I'm hesitant to add
more dependencies on it in the docs, since I suspect it still might go away=

The right way probably to add a note, like we already have in other places.=
=20
Each of those has to explain the situation, which only ends up being more
confusing.  Probably that should all be written in one place so it does not
have to be repeated each time.  This does not help the new user, because it=
's a
lot of information they don't need.  "Use svnlite, which is the same as svn,
unless it doesn't exist, in which case install the package.  Mentally repla=
ce
all these example commands with one or the other, whichever one exists."
