====== Using Subversion on Sourceforge.net ======
Below are the steps to using SVN if you are the developer of projects hosted on sourceforge. This example uses onlinepasswords opensource application that I created and is hosted on sourceforge.

====== Actual steps to getting SVN working on Sourceforge.net ======
My development box is a Linux server and I do most work on command line. So everything is done via command line. You can mimic/tweak this with GUI on either Linux or Windows\\
1. Assume all of the source files are in a given folder (on your local server) from where you want to do the import to sourceforge svn. \\
This folder name is /home/userhomedir/onlinepasswords. Run this:
cd /home/userhomedir/onlinepasswords
ls -la
Output:
total 152

2. Do the import
cd /home/userhomedir
myusername@mylocalserver: /home/userhomedir >
svn import onlinepasswords https://onlinepasswords.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/onlinepasswords -m initial --username mysfusername

4. Delete the directory from which the import was done. This is where we are going to create the working copy. You can just choose a difference location if required. Why are we doing this? Because I am moving sourceforge to be my main repository and make my local as the client which will have the files from svn. So sourceforge will maintain my project files going forward and I don't have to trust my backups!
cd /home/userhomedir
myusername@mylocalserver: /home/userhomedir >
rm -Rf onlinepasswords
5. Create a working copy directory and downloading the files that were just uploaded
cd /home/userhomedir
svn checkout https://onlinepasswords.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/onlinepasswords onlinepasswords
