Hi all

I just uploaded my Papers directory to an svn repository. I have the autofile 
preference set to put papers there. (To be precise, it's ~/Documents/Papers.) 
Now I would like to create a working copy of the directory, and have the 
records in my bibliography point to the papers in the repository. I am not sure 
how to do this and I don't want to unlink all of my PDF's :)

I moved the Papers directory that was uploaded to the repository to Papers-old, 
and then created a working copy called Papers. I figured that the references in 
the records would point to the files in the working-copy-Papers directory, 
which is identical to the initial directory. But the records all point to the 
files in Papers-old. Not what I want.

I had the thought of selecting all of the records with attached files and 
telling BibDesk to autofile them, but that ended up moving the linked files 
into the new directory. I think a new file name was generated as well for the 
moved file so as not to have the same one as the file already there. I thought 
it would "re-lilnk" to the files in in the working-copy-Papers directory.

OK, I don't know if people can follows this. If so, any help would be 
appreciated.
