Hi Saifi, I have not worked with SVN, so not sure how it keeps its metadata. I also dont see any metadata under the trunk directory at http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/. If it were a CVS repository it would have metadata directories and files (like Entries, Repository and Root files) and all you would have to do is set the CVSROOT and run 'cvs update'. Maybe something similar needs to be done for SVN. You may find something in this book: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ Namita
