Hi,

I got a PM from Stasys (http://forum.joomla.org/index.php?action=profile;u=44) asking how to put files in SVN the first time.

Logging it here for future questions/answers.

Robin

You might want to correct the typo in the subject title and then delete this post

To start off your SVN you need to create a directory on your local computer. In that directory, execute the following:

svn co --username http://joomlacode.org/svn/ .

This will checkout the empty repository into the directory you created.

Copy the files you want to checkin into this directory.

Then do:

svn add (svn add * to add everything)

Then:
svn commit

And you are done.

See http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/ ... cle.update for more information on the basic working cycle.

Refer to: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/ ... ing.layout

For information on repository layout if you want a recommendation as to how to layout your repository (i.e. with branch, tag and trunk)

Yes, it is. After a project is granted, a script runs ever so often that sets the correct to SVN of that project.
