Use an existing working copy

This is the process of taking an working copy that exists on your filesystem and connecting it to Subversion. If you have a brand new project that you want to import into your repository, then see the section Import resources into the repository

This assumes that you have an existing valid working copy on your filesystem. In the Working Copy View click on the Add/Remove Working Copy toolbar button.
