Yes, the system already has the 'branches'. It was converted from a CVS
system and has a lot of branches
under it. I just cannot get it to copy the HEAD to a branch I want.
The repository names is, say, 'REPO', and I have a module, say, 'MOD'.
I checked out the module MOD
from the truck of 'REPO'. It shows up as 'MOD [trunck/MOD]' in my
Eclipse resource perspective.
I want to create a branch, say, 'foo' in the branches. From the SVN
perspective, I can see under
http://svnserver/REPO
there are 'branches', 'tags', and 'trunck'.
I just cannot get it to create 'foo' under branches.
