I duplicated my working directory for a project as I'm planning to branch it off into another project. To do this, I simply used File Explorer to copy and paste the working directory and then renamed it. The problem is that SVN still sees it as a working folder and is showing the SVN icons overlaid on the root folder and all of the sub folders. Is there a way to clear this or disassociate the directory from SVN?

Thanks!

Just delete the .svn folder at the base of your new folder.
