[JENKINS-4154] when second svn repository isn't in workspace, hudson re-checks out first repository too instead of updating

Add repository A as a subversion repository for a project. Build. Now add a

second repository, B. Hudson will say "Checking out a fresh workspace because

${env.workspace}/B doesn't exist", but will actually check out both A and B fresh.

This causes the next build to take a long time after adding (or changing) a

secondary repository and also seems superfluous; A should be updated as usual if

it still exists, and B should be checked out.
