Make sure you are attached to the Internet, then right-click on the avrtoolbox directory and select the TortoiseSVN import as shown in Figure 8. This is very non-intuitive since what you are really doing is uploading the directory tree to your Google Code project; from the perspective of that project, you are ‘importing’ those directories from a PC out in space somewhere. You are at your PC but your repository is at Google somewhere. That’s the perspective taken by TortoiseSVN. This will open the window shown in Figure 9. Click OK and you’ll see the window in Figure 10. Next, you’ll see the Authentication window shown in Figure 11. Be sure and remember that the password requested is specific to the Google Code project you created and is NOT the same as your general Google password. This bit me a few times. Click OK and you’ll see Figure 12.

Now, go to the avrtoolbox project on Google Code and click on the Source tab and the Browse button; you’ll see Figure 13 which verifies that you’ve successfully imported the directories.

Example Of Version Control

After we get the directories on our Google Code project, we need to link them back to the directories we have on our PC. Right-click on the avrtoolbox directory in Windows Explorer and then click on SVN Checkout as shown in Figure 14. Figures 15, 16, and 17 show the process for completing the Checkout. Now that you’ve got them checked out, TortoiseSVN puts a special green checkmark on the directories in Windows Explorer as in Figure 18.
