"Practical Subversion" is just that -- a no-fluff-just-stuff guide to using Subversion. It takes the reader from creating his first repository, importing his first project, checking out a working copy, and so on, to administering the repository and integrating with it using a number of programming languages -- briefly but still.
Having said that, and even though it certainly covers a lot of ground, "Practical Subversion" is not a complete reference. The author covers all subjects in a pragmatic manner, covering the common needs well and giving enough hints to help the reader in finding answers for the edge cases.
What I especially like about product-oriented books like this one is when the authors sneak in advice on best practices in using the product, the "tips and tricks" type of gems that make you go "wow" in a bathtub. In addition to learning how to take a backup, I now know how to add auto-completion for Subversion commands in Bash!
