Re: why does svn upgrade contact the server?

I'd think the right thing to do here would be to import your pristine
directory under .svn as the start of a new repository, check it out
and copy over changes from the visible part of the working copy,
commit that, then work as normal. Anyone have a better idea or hints
on how to avoid unwanted metadata files while doing this?
