Instead of doing this tutorial, try going straight through chapter 1-3 of the book. Those chapters assume you already have a repository available over http:// (which you do), rather than file:/// (which assumes you're creating a local repository, and you're not.)
All you need to do is run 'svn import my-tree-of-code/ https://myprojectname.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/', and then authenticate with your googlecode-specific password. (See the instructions on your project's Source->Checkout page.) If you need real svn newbie help, the best place is to go to [email protected] -- that's the main mailing list for svn users helping each other. This list is mainly for questions specific to Google's service.
