OK - I saw that before I posted here and put the following in
~/.subversion/config

rsh = rsh
craigssh = /usr/bin/ssh -p 222

and then running...

$ svn checkout svn+ssh://remote.host.com/home/craig/my-db_svn my-db_svn

takes a long time and then tells me...

ssh: connect to host remote.host.com port 22: Connection timed out
svn: Connection closed unexpectedly

and this...

$ svn checkout craigssh://remote.host.com/home/craig/my-db_svn my-db_svn
svn: Unrecognized URL scheme for
'craigssh://remote.host.com/home/craig/my-db_svn'

so I clearly don't understand what is going on...(the port and
remote.host.com have been changed to protect the innocent)

there is no 'verbose' sort of option that I can find that helps me
troubleshoot and there's a disconnect between the documentation and my
brain that is making the usage less than obvious to me.
