A repository is basically something you can check-out. Sub-repositories
allow organizing repositories in a hierarchy. This hierarchy is shown in
the check-out dialog when you register a new repository.

Fore example, with SVN you can check-out any directory, so given an SVN
url, the list of sub-repositories is the list of sub-directories in that
url.

I don't know how bzr works. If every url corresponds to exclusively one
module you can checkout, then just make HasChildRepositories return
false. If given an url, bzr allows browsing through a list of modules
located in that url, then you would have a repository representing that
url, and one sub-repository for each module.
