I wanted to disconnect a folder I've checked out from SVN using Tortoise SVN. I could vaguely remember, but I knew I was able to do this before through the context menu in windows explorer. What I wasn't sure about is whether I did it in SVN or in Sourcesafe.
So I did a quick google. One of the most obvious choice is to manually delete the .svn folders which I already knew, but that would be cumbersome if you have a lot of folders and subfolders. Another way is to use export (see screenshot below) which seemed readily available for me.
Note: Technically, this is NOT a disconnect but a COPY without all the .SVN files
Steps:
1. Right click on the folder you want to disconnect
2. Choose TortoiseSVN -> Export
3. Select the folder you want to export to
That did the job for me and I guess I will be using it until I find a more comfortable way of using it. Safe and Simple.

I'm looking into going back to game development this year and I'm really keen on learning java 3D and I've scouted for a few Java 3d API that I could possibly use.
I can't make any recommendations since I haven't used any of them. My brother plans on using JMonkey, and I hope he gets better with it so I could also save time by just asking questions to him. I think the future of 3D in Java is still bleak, but that is actually more of an opportunity to create something great out of something not so popular in the gaming industry.
