Maybe what's missing is a step to create the "quadrature" directory in the repository, before you try to import a file into that directory. one way to do it: svn mkdir file:///m/svn/repos/quadrature -m "Creating quadrature project" (the "-m ..." part will skip the emacs opening up) another way is to import the entire directory, assuming it exists the way you want it in the repository. - Itamar.
