Hi guys,

New to the list and have a quick question. First of all I think  
Combinator is a great idea and well though out, have you guys looked  
at adding it to the subversion code itself? Would be a great  
improvement to it's ease of use.

Secondly (and my question) ;-) something I couldn't quite make out  
from the Combinator tutorial is if I can use my own folder locations,  
or do I need to stay within the combinator directory? I might have  
overlooked something simple, but I couldn't tell how to break out of  
the Combinator folder. When I 'chbranch Project trunk https:// 
svn1.example.com/project/trunk' whilst in ~/ (my home folder)  
Combinator will still create the project in its own folder (~/ 
CombinatorTurorial/. Can I enter a absolute (or relative  
like ../../../Project) as the second argument to have a different  
folder outside of Combinators installation location?

Or am I approaching this with an incorrect paradigm, should I install  
Combinator in the root of my projects and let it site there? This  
would be slightly better but still, I usually have a workspace folder  
where I install all my libraries and stuff like combinator. And a  
projects folder for my current development. So would like to manage  
branches of projects in a different folder from where Combinator  
resides. How should I go about this?

Thanks for any help.

Greetings,
