How to put project in SVN for the first time

1.  Create a new repository on the server.
2.  Create a directory on local computer.  In that directory, execute the following:

svn checkout --username myuser https://www.collabnet.company.com/svn/projectname

This checkouts the empty repository on the directory created.

svn add *
