Good!  That was my experience too, BTW -- SVN was a genuine
improvement over CVS, and I was productive with it the first hour. 
There are "tricks" you'll learn too (or already have); for example, if
you make a bunch of changes in a local checkout, and have to drop it
for a while, it's easy and fast to create an SVN branch with those
changes despite that you didn't plan on it from the start (create a
new branch in the repository; `svn switch` to it locally, which leaves
your local changes alone; then commit).

Too new-fashioned for me, although I can see how it might appeal to kids ;-)
