# Import Folder

## Overview

If you have local or networked resources that you want to add to a repository, you can use the import option. This is useful when you have created a local project and want to share it with other team members under version control.

## Process

Type the name of the directory from which you want to import or click Browse to select an import directory. If you want to import the selected directory and all of its subdirectories, check the Recurse through subdirectories option. An import to a repository location is a commit operation. Be sure to enter an appropriate comment or choose a previously entered comment from the list.
