I really hate to be another of those nauseating people that says "'I have a draft called 'How to make millions, discover eternal peace and live happily ever after' sitting in my Drafts folder but I haven't had time to publish it due to Granny's illness and the dog eating my homework" but I actually do have a 'Idiot's Guide to SVN' sitting in my Drafts folder but haven't have the time to polish it off and publish it due to Granny's illness and the dog eating my homework.
But basically, from memory, you create the necessary directory structure (branches, tags, trunk) under the new plugin/theme $ svn add whizzy # Add the directory (recurses down the tree) to SVN $ svn commit -m "Directory structure for whizzy plugin' # Commit the changes Then, you add the actual files and $ svn diff # Check the diffs are vaguely what you expect $ svn commit -m 'Initial commit of whizzy plugin' # Done. Put kettle on. You can also combine the steps into a single commit of everything.
