[QUOTE="chefkoch, post: 658993, member: 10438"] [b]AW: SVN checkout downloads many obsolete files and folders[/b] I assume that you checked out the root svn directory, which contains [LIST] [*]branches [*]tags [*]trunk [/LIST] You could do a checkout out for trunk only, then all obsolete tags and branches won't be included. I personally also made a checkout for root, but I am only updating trunk "full recursive". tags and branches are updated with the option "immediate children, including folders". This way I can see all available branches and if I want to test a special branch I can do a full recursive update only for this branch. You can change the way a folder is updated by clicking with the right mouse button on the folder, TortoiseSVN > Update to revision... . And there you can change the "Update depth". Hopefully this helps a bit, cheers Tommy EDIT: Checking out svn the first time you also could do the following: For svn root, you choose the UpdateDepth "Immediate children, including folders". For branches and tags you choose again "Immediate children, including folders". For trunk you choose "full recursive". EDIT2: Did not noticed that it was already answered :oops: [/QUOTE]
