How to get checksum from a svn repo?

I want to try and make a PKGBUILD, but the program I am going to try and make is from a SVN so I don't have a .tar.gz to get a checksum from. How would I go about this?

I can give more information on the specific package I want to build if that would help any.

Re: How to get checksum from a svn repo?

The md5sums() array is only for any files listed in the source() array.

A quick look at some existing PKGBUILDs for SVN programs shows things like:

source=()
md5sums=()
makedepends=('subversion')

and

source=('something.desktop')
md5sums=('b3bafbcc64bde3e3742f994574da5fdd')
