# Subversion Checkout Wizard: Folders to Checkout

The Folders to Checkout page of the Subversion Checkout wizard enables you to choose the folders and revisions you want to checkout, as well as specify the location of your local working directory.

When checking out files from the repository, you specify the following:

Element | Description
--- | ---
Repository Folder(s) | Enter the name of the repository folder to checkout. You can click the Browse button to open the Browse Repository Folders dialog box to peruse existing folders in the repository. If you do not specify a folder, all folders in the repository are checked out.
Repository Revision | Enter the name of the revision to checkout. You can click the Search button to open the Search Revisions dialog box to view existing revisions for the selected repository folder. If you do not specify a revision, the repository head (latest revision) is checked out.
Local Folder | Enter the location of your local working directory or click the Browse button to locate the directory on your computer.

You can specify whether to checkout only the content of the repository folder you have selected. To do so, select the Skip "<selected_folder>" and checkout only its content option.

You can specify whether to permit the IDE to scan the checked out files for NetBeans projects upon completing the wizard. To do so, select the Scan for NetBeans Projects after Checkout option.
