Hi Pat

Subversion understands repositories natively, but everything else - even
tags and branches - are simply directories. Assuming that all your
current projects are under the repository root, you'd add a new project
like this:

svn mkdir http://hostname/svn/repository/project -m "Creating a new
project"

This assumes that http://hostname/svn/repository is your repository path
- modify to suit.

Alternatively, if you have the repository checked out locally, you can
create the new project's directory locally (mkdir project) and then
commit. This would allow you to populate the project and commit
everyhting in one go.

Cheers
John
