RE: checkout on existing directory structure

Check out somewhere else; write a script to remove everything but the .svn directories; copy those over the top of your original (thus turning it into a working copy); commit.

Subject: checkout on existing directory structure

Scenario - files/directories are added to svn by svn import. Further updates require svn commit. To commit, svn must be checkouted first. How to checkout imported structure on existing files/dirs structure?

Example: svn holds a file, let's say a/b/c/d.txt. File /x/a/b/c/d.txt exists on filesystem. As the file was just imported to svn both disk and svn file match. What should I do to get equivalent of svn checkout in /x directory having files/dirs present, but unversioned, on filesystem? The final result I need are all files/dirs in svn versioned (i.e. .svn dirs appers) and all remaining files (i.e. unversioned) left intact.

I hope there is a way. I really really really cannot wipe this system or files out even for a moment.
