Emdebian is probably the easiest example.

svn co http://www.emdebian.org/svn/current

From that repository, multistrap is one example:

current/host/trunk/multistrap/trunk

I have the entire current/ tree checked out (as I work on a whole
variety of trees within this repository).

neil at sylvester:trunk$ pwd
/home/neil/code/emdebian/current/host/trunk/multistrap/trunk
neil at sylvester:trunk$ sudo debi
debi: can't read multistrap_2.1.20_amd64.changes!
neil at sylvester:trunk$ ls ../build-area/multistrap_2.1.20_amd64.changes
../build-area/multistrap_2.1.20_amd64.changes
neil at sylvester:trunk$ realpath ../build-area/multistrap_2.1.20_amd64.changes
/home/neil/code/emdebian/current/host/trunk/multistrap/build-area/multistrap_2.1.20_amd64.changesneil at sylvester:trunk$ svn info
