checkouts (in my experience) always create the directory tree they
need.

updates, on the other hand, only update directories that are there,
unless you specify -d so that it creates all the directories it might
need.  using -P with this is also good, as it removes all the
directories that are empty at the end (whether they ended up not being
needed, or because they ended up with no files left).
