is it possible to mount CVS/SVN repository as filesystem?
Yes and no. Both keep stuff as normal files, but often as diffs and BDB databases. You really need to go through the appropriate client interface to extract data from it meaningfully. Also, you don't normally work directly on the repository but on a locally checked out version. This is what makes concurrent edits possible. SVN is typically implemented as a WebDAV service (possibly using SSL for security), and you can simply mount the webdav point as you would any other webdav file system. I guess you could check out a version remotely, then mount that area via webdav. Not sure what you'd gain though.
