I've got a working copy that I checkout of the trunk and I have made quite a few changes and would prefer to commit back to a branch instead of the trunk (from which is was checked out from).
Is this possible and how can I do this using TortoiseSVN?
Select any file and/or folders you want to commit, then TortoiseSVN → Commit.... The commit dialog will show you every changed file, including added, deleted and unversioned files. If you don't want a changed file to be committed, just uncheck that file.
Switch your current working copy to the newly created copy in the repository. Again select the top level folder of your project and use TortoiseSVN → Switch... from the context menu. In the next dialog enter the URL of the branch you just created. Select the Head Revision radio button and click on OK.
If you are using TortoiseSVN (and I'm sure there's a command line tool for this as well, but I'm using Tortoise), you can simply right-click on your existing working copy folder and select TortoiseSVN –> Relocate. In the dialog that comes up, enter the new location of the repository, and click OK.
Select Branch/tag... and select the working copy radio button,
