i have some code projects in separate folders in a svn repository.
Now i have some problems with deleting files: most of the times all goes well, but sometimes when i delete a file or folder from disk the checkin process gives me all kind of errors.
So i was wondering: what exactly is the way to delete folders under svn source control?
do i just delete them in the explorer and then commit the master folder, of do i have to rightclick the folder, and then ?
It seems a trivial question, but deleting files is giving me so much troubles with svn (for the rest i'm realy happy with it).
Deleting a File or Directory To remove a file from a Subversion repository, change to the directory with its working copy and run the following command: svn delete file… Similarly, to remove a directory and all files that are in it, type: svn delete directory…
All files and folders that are not versioned are moved to the trash bin. Note: you can also do the same from the TortoiseSVN → Revert dialog. There you also get a list of all the unversioned files and folders to select for removal. This command reverts all your local modifications which are not committed yet.
Right click file / folder -> TortoiseSVN -> Delete.
And then commit.
