However, this should only be done if it's *completely* new code. If
it's based upon existing code in any way, start with "svn copy", then
modify the copy,

Note: the meaning of "modify" doesn't include overwriting a file with
something based upon an older version. It's imperative that subversion
knows which revision the code was based upon.

If you have created a file based upon an existing file, but you don't
know the revision on which it was based, simply delete the modified
file and start again.
