question about svn use

[nbv4]

I have a django project that I work on on my home computer. I decided to set of a SVN repository on my webspace so I can more easily make backups.

I have everything set up, and the repository is woeking fine. When I go to http://svn.example.com I see "/ - Revision 1: /", and then the files of my project.

What I don't understand is exactly how this is all supposed to work. Do I continue development from the directory I project is in now, or am I supposed to make a new one, then use "svn co http://svn...."? Or am I supposed to do this stuff from within the svn directory on my webspace via SSH? All the tutorials seem to skip this kind of thing...

First you import it.

svn import your-project/ http://svn.example.com/trunk

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/s...tour.importing

Then you check out a copy:

mv your-project/ your-project.old/
svn co http://www.example.com/trunk your-project

And start editing.
