Hi Michael,
I understand your question - because the "normal" use for subversion
seems to revolve around a project.
with that in mind you could just relocate your current code and make a
separate Math quiz project.
so lets assume you've got;
repoRoot
|----trunk/
|----branches/
|----tags/
you could use svn move and end up with something like;
repoRoot/
|----wordQuiz/
|----trunk/
|----branches/
|----tags/
|----mathQuiz/
|----trunk/
|----branches/
|----tags/
You could simply create a branch like you propose and do away with the
re-organisation.
repoRoot
|----trunk/
|----branches/
|----mathQuiz/
|----tags/
It really is up to you - and your repository should match the way you
work.
The tools you use are there to support your procedures / policies /
work methods.
While it does happen (and can be quite successful) - you should be
weary if a tool forces you to work in a new way.
Gavin.
