Using Tortoise SVN, how can I download the latest version of the source code of my CodePlex application?

I'm trying to figure out how to download the latest source code.

Here's what I've done.

  1. On my desktop machine, I created my CodePlex app account, installed Tortoise SVN and successfully uploaded my code to the site. The source code now shows on the CodePlex site.

  2. On my laptop, I installed Tortoise SVN. I then created a blank folder and I'm now trying to download the code available on my CodePlex site.

I know my SVN url, and my user name and password.

I'm just lost as to how to do it. I try SVN Update, but it only downloads a couple of files, not the complete source code.

Instead of "SVN Update"
try "TortoiseSVN->Update to Revision..."
and select "Update Depth=Fully recursive".

Just create a folder you want to create the files to, then go up, right click on the folder, and choose "SVN Checkout" from the menu. Then enter your URL repository.

If you don't see that menu option TortoiseSVN must not have installed correctly.

With Tortoise simply Right-Click in your Directory and do an "SVN Checkout.." This option is directly above your "Tortoise SVN" menu.

When starting with no code on the laptop, run SVN Checkout the first time, this creates a working copy.

SVN Update should be run on this working copy (or subpaths). It's normal for update to fetch only a few files, as it only fetches the modifications
