Yes, it could make a nice tutorial, in which checking code out of
subversion would be a part of the exercise. Another use would be a
handful of examples, which could be used to illustrate some specific
functionality of mGAR. Sometimes, people who do tutorials see the
parts, but miss a tiny bit which is required to make the whole thing
work. Being able to fetch a complete working version helps in such
situations.

One more usage I can think of is using those (minimal) examples as a
kind of test suite, which could be used to verify that changes done in
mGAR don't break functionality.
