How do I download code using SVN Tortoise from Google Code

Question

I just saw a really cool WPF twitter client that I think is developed by the Herding Code podcast guys HerdingCode called Witty    or at least  I see a lot of those guys using this client    This project is currently posted up on Google Code   Many of the projects on Google Code use Subversion as the version control system  including Witty    Having never used Subversion  I m not sure what to do to download the code     On the source page for this project  google code witty source  it gives the following instruction   Non-members may check out a read-only working copy anonymously over HTTP   svn checkout http   wittytwitter googlecode com svn trunk  wittytwitter-read-only   I m confused as to where I am supposed to enter the above command so that I can download the code   I have installed SVN and Tortoise  which I know almost nothing about      Thanks for any help or simply pointing me in the right direction      Ed   emcpadden

If you have Tortoise SVN  like I do  take the google link  and ONLY copy the URL   Regular-  svn checkout http   wittytwitter googlecode com svn trunk  wittytwitter-read-only   Modified to URL-  http   wittytwitter googlecode com svn trunk  wittytwitter   Create a folder  right click the empty space  You can Browse Repo or just download it all via checkout   I don t know whether you have to be a Google member or not  but I signed up just in case  Have fun with the code   Misanthropy

After you install Tortoise  separate SVN client not required   create a new empty folder for the project somewhere and right click it in Windows  There should be an option for SVN Checkout  Choosing that option will open a dialog box  Paste the URL you posted above in the first textbox of that dialog box and click  OK
