The ck find command for a repository returns the location of the locally stored metadata for this repository e.g.
anton@localhost / $ ck find repo:reproduce-carp-project
/home/anton/CK/local/repo/reproduce-carp-project
In most cases, however, the user will want to find the actual location of the data, not that of the metadata. Currently this can be found using the ck where command e.g.:
anton@localhost / $ ck where repo:reproduce-carp-project
/home/anton/CK/reproduce-carp-project
This is consistent with using ck find for other entities but not terribly intuitive, leading to confusion and frustration.
I suggest to change this behaviour, so that ck find returns the location of the data, while e.g. ck find --meta returns the location of the metadata. The ck where command can then be kept for compatibility or deprecated.

…. Now "ck find repo:<name>" returns path to repository rather than to meta. To return path to meta, use "ck find repo:<name> --meta". Closes ticket #45.
