The Subversion Copy dialog box enables you to create a copy (i.e. branch) of a version-controlled file or folder and add it to a new location within the repository.
The dialog box is divided into two areas: Source and Destination, enabling you to specify what is to be copied, and where it is to reside.
Source:
Element | Description |
---|---|
Local/Remote Folder |
Specify whether you want to copy the local version of the file or folder, or the version in the repository. You can also specify a specific revision of the item by entering a revision number in the Revision text box. Clicking the Search button adjacent to the Revision text box allows you to view revisions maintained in the repository. |
Skip selected Folder and copy only its Contents |
Select this option if you want to avoid including the selected folder when creating a copy. |
Destination:
Element | Description |
---|---|
Repository Location |
Specify a location for the new copy. You can either type in a path relative to the repository, otherwise click the Browse button to open a new dialog that aids in browsing the repository folders. You can also specify a new location in the repository. |
Preview |
The Preview text box provides a listing of the fully-qualified repository URL based on the selection made in Repository Location. |
Switch to Copy |
Selecting the Switch to Copy option allows you to begin immediately working in the new copy upon completing the dialog. |
Copy Description |
