Question

I want to add a folder to a remote server with the svn repository set up. In my local computer I have tortoiseSVN. All I want to do is add folder from my local computer to the repo setup in the remote directory? ANy pointers? You can tell I'm not a svn person :(

Was it helpful?

Solution

You can copy the directory into your checked-out copy of the repository, then right click on the file, go to TortoiseSVN, and select add. This will add the folder to your repo, then commit the change (right click and select SVN Commit), and you should be good.

If that isn't sufficient for your question, I apologize.

GotAmye, As long as the remote server is housing a subversion repository, this should work. What is running on the remote server that makes you think there will be a problem?

OTHER TIPS

svn import path URL

Recursively commits a copy of path to URL. If path is omitted the current directory is assumed. Parent directories are created as necessary in the repository.

Thanks for your help everyone. Your pointers were very helpful. Here is a summary of what I did:

  1. From my remote server, I checked out the svn repository on which I wanted to add my folder
  2. On the checked out repo (now in my local computer), I added the folders that I wanted.
  3. Right click on the newly added folder (on which all the added files are present)->TortoiseSVN->add
  4. To commit the changes TortoiseSVN->Commit

Well if the location that you added the folder to on disk is already the working location for part of the repository you can simply right click the folder ->TortoiseSVN->Add
