Hi
Would the trunk be the root directory? I got this working but what a
nightmare. Do you know why it does not just copy in the folder hierarchy?
I am an embedded developer so this is not typically my forte. I just
remembered I worked on CVS/tort before and I don't remember having to follow
these procedures and is a nightmare when one is preocupied with other code
matters. No wonder you get paranoi.
Regards
Martin

|When you import, the *content* of the folder will be imported (including
|any
|sub-folder hierarchy) but not the folder itself. I think this is what is
|causing the confusion.
|
|If you want your repo to look like:
|
|trunk
| Project1
| File1
| File2
| Project2
| File3
| File4
|
|One way to do it is to use repo browser to create trunk, then create
|subfolders Project1 and Project2.
|
|Now go to your local drive and import the Project1 folder into
|/path/to/repos/trunk/Project1
|
|Note that the folder you imported is *not* your working copy, and is not
|controlled by SVN. To get a working copy, you need to checkout your newly
|created structure into an empty working folder.
|
|What I usually do is move my original unversioned folder to an archive area
|and also copy it into C:\Temp\Project1. Then I clean up the temp version to
|remove object files, etc. and import it. I then create a new folder for my
|WC and check out from the repository. When I am happy that I have
|everything
|working, I delete the temp folder, and (eventually) the unversioned
|archive.
|
|For a fresh project, you will not need to go through the paranoia stages
|above, but for an existing project, I want to be very sure I haven't
|forgotten anything before I delete the unversioned data!
