Default Re: Subversion Issues

I understand 1 to be "working copy", 2 to be repository, but don't know what the "live site code" is known as within SVN.
The live copy is normally created from an export as then you don't have all the svn folders. However in reality it's only another checkout from the repository, just as though someone on another computer took a copy to work with/use.

If you want a more automated system then read up on hook scripts.

I took a copy of the working copy folder, then used TortoiseSVN to "delete". It deleted all the files. But I don't know what to do next.
Once you commit your changes to the repository then your working copy and repository should be in sync, do an update as well to be sure.

Once in sync copy your files back to your working copy without the svn folders and then commit again and the folder should be added back to the repository.

It all depends what errors you get if any as to exactly how you handle it.
