Re: seting defaults for /tags /branches /trunk in tortoiseSVN

Hi there,

first of all, thank you for the quick replies.

We reviewed SmartSVN which has this feature. But it distinguishes between
tags and branches which TSVN (afaik) doesn't do. So your points are correct.

This means there is no way to default the folders?

Greetings, Daniel
