# If the basic directories (trunk, tags, branches) don't exist , create them and then add them by right clicking on them and selecting '''...SVN/Addadd'''.# In '''trunk''', create your basic project framework, compile it, and run it. (this This could be as simple as few empty files or a Hello world application).# Right click on the '''trunk and ''', select '''....SVN/Addadd''' again , and select all of the needed file files to be added to the repository. #: Add only those files that should be tracked you want to track for modification; . "Those Only the source and project files need to be version-controlled". Binary and Executable executable files are usually not added to the repository; Only add . Add them only if you know what you are have a reason for doingso.# Right click on '''trunk ''' and select '''SVN Commit''' to commit your work to the repository server.
