Subclipse installation and setup

Question

I have used Subclipse in the past, but never did a complete install and setup on my own. I have tried to follow the instructions on several websites but I just cannot seem to get it to work. I have it installed in eclipse, and I have an account on Tigris, but I can't figure out how to create a new project to share. I need assistance starting from adding a new repository in eclipse. I am new to the whole thing from an install POV so please be as thorough as possible. I have a project for one of my classes that requires us to use SVN to work on on a group project, so I need to get this up and running. I have a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion OSX if that helps any.

Edit I am stuck on step 4 here I just don't know how to setup the repository, and get the correct url. I opened an account on the tigris websitE, but under their help menu it says there is a "create new project" link under the "projects" tab... but I don't see one anywhere.

What instructions have you tried, and why didn't it work? What were you expecting to see and what happened instead? — , Aug 30 '12 at 03:14
Can you try this http://subclipse.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectProcess?pageID=p4wYuA. — Sai Ye Yan Naing Aye, Aug 30 '12 at 05:12
If you use windows, you can use http://www.visualsvn.com/ for easy server setup. — JIV, Aug 30 '12 at 13:26

If you have an existing Subversion server and repository then you just take the option to Add a SVN Repository and you enter the URL for the repository.

If you need to create a repository, you can only do it locally on your hard drive. There is an option on the view drop down menu labelled New Repository ... this will let you specify a local folder where it will create a new repository and add a connection to that repository.
