Examples
Import the local directory myproj into the root of your repository:
$svn import -m "New import" myproj \
>http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test
Adding myproj/sample.txt ... Transmitting file data ......... Committed revision 16.
Import the local directory myproj into trunk/vendors in your repository. The directory trunk/vendors need not exist before you import into it; svn import will recursively create directories for you:
$svn import -m "New import" myproj \
>http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test/trunk/vendors/myproj
Adding myproj/sample.txt ... Transmitting file data ......... Committed revision 16.
After importing data, note that the original tree is not under version control. To start working, you still need to svn checkout a fresh working copy of the tree.
