Topic: Wiping out an svn repository

I starting following a tutorial to set up my repository and made a mistake in importing files. I'd like to start over fresh and was tempted to do a rm -r <directory> but wanted to seek advice from wiser people smile

I'm assuming running that command will certainly delete the files, but there will still be traces in the database right? My goal is to start over as if I never ran svnadmin create. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Wiping out an svn repository

If you remove the repository folder it should just work. I believe subversion files are all kept in that directory so you don't have to worry about an external database.
