Unversion folder of working copy - TortoiseSVN 1.7

Question

How can I unversion a subfolder in my working copy of tortoiseSVN? I found that guide http://tortoisesvn.net/unversion.html but it did not work for me.

Answer 1

If this folder needs to remain easily available in the repository, and just not in your working copy, what you want is a Sparse Checkout (see also http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-checkout.html#tsvn-dug-checkout-depth).

Check out the parent folder (or project root), but not at full depth. Then update each subfolder with the appropriate depth, omitting the one you don't want in your WC.
