Configuring TortoiseSVN
TortoiseSVN generally requires no configuration. To access a repository, a checkout operation should be performed. Right-click in the directory to perform the checkout, and select 'SVN Checkout' from the menu. Then, access the repository via URL, similar to how a web-browser operates. This URL will look like:
https://PROJECTNAME.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME
Though, typically you would want to specify the trunk to be checked out. Like this:
https://PROJECTNAME.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/PROJECTNAME/trunk
PROJECTNAME is the project UNIX name, as specified on the summary page for the project in question. The project, 'filezilla', for example, would use the following URL to checkout the trunk of their SVN repository:
https://filezilla.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/filezilla/trunk
Upon first connection to the SourceForge.net SVN server, you may be prompted to accept the 'server certificate' for svn.sourceforge.net, you should 'Accept Permanently' the certificate.
After initial checkout, if you change a file and want to commit the change back to the repository, you will be prompted for your username and password. This will be the username and password for the SourceForge.net website.
