For a project at uni we have to work on an existing project with about 13000 files. We need to do an initial commit to our svn repo, however the transfer rate in TortoiseSVN is so slow that the connection to our remote end gets closed down every time I try to commit. Usually the rate is around 50 kBytes/second and the project's size is about 100MB
Any ideas how I could speed it up? Or is there a better way to go at this entirely?
EDIT: We are not allowed to use Git or anything else aside from SVN
