Re: [Subclipse-users] Importing with Subclipse

You want to right-click on your Hangman project and do Team > Share
Project. This will do the initial import and connection of the
project in your Eclipse workspace with your repository. You might
want to first use the SVN Repositories view to delete what you already
put in the repository.
