Yes just delete the files. :-) Are you using tortoise svn? Its really
quite nice.
You have many questions about subversion, I understand, and while
subversion is really pretty simple once you understand a few of the
basics, its not really simple when you have never used it. I strongly
suggest that you spend an afternoon reading Chapters 1 & 2 from here
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ and while you are at it check out the
section in the preface labeled "What is subversion". Once the
fundamentals are clarified you will feel a lot more confident in using it.
In Christ,
