I have SVN bound folder that is copied from my colleague's machine. that folder contains svn bound hidden folders which are difficult to remove manualy. Is there a way to remove the svn bindings from folder using tortoise svn GUI tool

+3  A: 

It might not be the GUI tool, but there is an excellent shell command that can do this.

Thanks Joe, I got the shell command from googling but I wish it had a GUI option in tortoise svn though,

We can use the Export command in the tortoise SVN context menu to remove svn bindings.

Yes, it would be good but I don't think there is. At least this command does the job, and as it integrates with windows explorer it feels like a tortoise svn add-on! :)

The export control won't help if you already have a folder structure that you need to remove from SVN control. As Jon mentions "SVN export copies your project to a new folder that's not under SVN control"

Thanks Joe Your are correct best one is command line option
