[DUG] Source Control - ToritoiseSVN - Importing without Deletion

They can't be "versioned" as they've new to the repository and therefore
don't (yet) have any history.

That's what I'd expect - they are new and not in the repository so are
non-versioned. If in the commit dialog (as long as you show
"non-versioned files" option checked) and you tick the checkbox beside
each file you want added, when you commit they'll be added to the
repository and will then begin to have a history ...

Isn't this what you were after - a way of getting files into the
repository without having to import, delete the originals and then check
them out again?

Cheers
