I have a folder that already checked out code from the trunk. I want to branch this off, so I don’t screw up the trunk. I do this by copy and pasting the trunk folder, but doing so makes it retain all those “.svn” hidden folders. So this branch believes that it is the same as the trunk. As a consequence, I won’t be able to commit this branch because it thinks that no files have been changed.
My question is if SVN Tortoise has some detachment feature - something that removes all those hidden “.svn” folders. You know - give the branched folder a clean start.
