TortoiseSVN - How do you check out from a SVN repo?

To perform a checkout from a SVN repo, you need to know/have few things first:

(1) Local folder that you want to store the check out files.
(2) SVN path that you want to check out files from. (depending on the SVN, credentials may be required)
(3) SVN client - In this case would be TortoiseSVN.

So, let's start:

(1) I am using this local folder (sample - c:\temp\xp-dev-temp)

(2) I am using this SVN path (sample - https://xp-dev.com/svn/selenium2basics/trunk/code/)

Note: This site require credential, thus you may use your own SVN path for testing.


(3) Right click on your target folder, then select SVN Checkout.

Note: To have this menu available, you need to install the TortoiseSVN client first.


(4) The TortoiseSVN client's Checkout window will show, ensure that the URL of repository and Checkout directory is filled correctly. Lastly, click on "OK" button to confirm.



(5) If the SVN requires credential, you will be prompted something similar below. Just fill in your credential to proceed.



(6) Then, Done! Your checkout will progress and complete shortly.
(duration may vary depending on your file size.)



Cheers. :)
