Re: Importing a tree

It appears that the way to do this is to first check out the directories
I'll be working with.

Then, as I create files, check to see if it already exists. If it does,
just write. If not, write the file, then an svn add.

At the end of the process, check the whole mess in.

Am I thinking straight?
