How to checkout a specific revision from Subversion?

I need to checkout a specific revision somewhere back in the trunk of my Subversion repository. It's neither a branch nor a tag, just a single revision number. How can this be done from inside IDEA?

Hello Martin,

I need to checkout a specific revision somewhere back in the trunk of
my Subversion repository. It's neither a branch nor a tag, just a
single revision number. How can this be done from inside IDEA?


Currently you can check out HEAD and then switch to the necessary revision
using Update. JIRA issue to add revision number selector to Checkout dialog
is welcome.

As a workaround you can create a tag/branch from the revision you want to checkout and then checkout the tag or branch via IntelliJ.

Well, if I have to use another tool to create the tag or branch first, then I can as well use this other tool to checkout the specific revision in the first place... :) (By the way that's exactly what I did: SmartSVN has the possibility to checkout a specific revision.)

You can create tags and branches with IntelliJ.

Yep, you're right, sorry. (It wasn't an option in this case, but thanks anyway.)
