Both the TortoiseSVN manual [1] and the online subversion book [2] are pretty much essential reading if you want to get the most out of subversion (there is a lot of common material in both books but TortoiseSVN is IMO a slightly better reference for a windows user). Read the introduction / fundamental concepts / basic usage sections. Those sections don't take too long to read. [1] http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/nightly/TortoiseSVN_en/index.html [2] http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/index.html In general, the root checkout folders do not have to have the same name; this allows you to have multiple local working copies if you need/want to work on several tasks at the same time. Sub-folders will be named the same by the client when created and if you change any of the folder names the "wrong way" you will run into "conflicts" This is all explained in the subversion book... ~ mark c P.S. could you (bottom-)post in plain text?
