After I "import", I have renamed my project folder to project.bak folder and created a new empty project folder. I found this after I do "co" in my new project folder.
How can I easily add these .so files or other possible ignored files into repository? There are about 900MB data (JDK and Eclipse). I don't want to miss any files. 1. Can I delete the new project folder and rename back the project.bak, and then use "svn add ."? or 2. Copy entire contents of project.bak folder (has ALL files) into the new project folder (missing some files), and then do "svn add ."? Does the "svn add ." can find new files and ignore existing files to add onto repository, after commit?

This is a listing of files that are ignored by default when you import a directory. You can add any file manually, but derived files like "*.o", "*.so", and "*.exe" (Windows) are often not added to the repository and so they tend to be omitted from automated processes. You can of course change the configuration file so that "*.so" files are not automatically excluded. -- David Chapman dcchap...@acm.org Chapman Consulting -- San Jose, CA Software Development Done Right. www.chapman-consulting-sj.com
