Let me see if I can clarify this better... my (supposedly one and only)
repository is on my desktop at home. I have one (1) working copy, which
is on my flash drive. I normally do a commit after making changes when
the flash drive is attached to the home desktop.
This time, I did a commit before leaving for work while the flash drive
was connected to the home desktop. I went to work, made some changes to
the working copy, and foolishly did a commit while the flash drive was
connected to my laptop. I don't believe there is a repository on the
laptop, at least that I knowingly created.
So, my plan now is to somehow replace everything in the repository (on
the desktop) with the working copy, since I know it has the latest
version. The only problem is I don't see anywhere in the docs where it
explains how to do that.
Thanks for the help so far... I appreciate it...
Regards,
Rolf

I then went to work, made some more changes to the project on the flash drive (now attached to my laptop), and when I wasn't thinking, committed those changes. I assume they went to the laptop?

You can have as many working copies of that repository as you like, stored in as many different places as you like. "svn commit" in any of them commits the changes in that working copy to the repository. "svn update" in any of the working copies retrieves the latest changes from the repository. Further information on how to use Subversion is in the book:

For example, in a terminal window, change to directory of your working copy and type "svn info" to see the repository URL with which the working copy is associated. That is where your changes got committed to.
