How to delete an svn imported files by mistake

Question

I am very new to the SVN and i was provided with the SVN URL and the credentials. I have create a folder named SVN repo and some files in that and I have click on SVN import as I thought that SVN import would get the files in my SVN repo Directory and have even provided the username and password. As i came to now that SVN chekout will get the files in my specified directory , I have done SVN checkout with specific URL, it even downloaded the folder SVN repo which was created by me. So my local folder got added in the SVN repo.I did not even did SVN commit for that folders. Could you please let me know how can I remove that SVN repo folder which was created by me? As i am using the tortoise SVN, please guide me how can i delete the imported files.

Answer 1

Nothing to worry about, if you haven't committed anything. Simply delete the folder from your local.

To check, go to SVN URL and see if you find anything from your local machine checked into SVN.

if yes, do SVN update on your local folder and delete the required folder and commit again.

Answer 2

Use: TortoiseSVN → Delete to remove files or folders from Subversion.

Answer 3

You can take checkout again of that folder if you have not committed delete to SVN. If you did delete and commit to SVN from trunk, then you can retrieve last version from tag.
