2. In the "Quick Start" menu, select "Check out from Version Control".
This will display a drop-down box.
3. In the drop-down box, select "Subversion".
This will open a "Checkout from Subversion" dialog.

4. In the "Checkout from Subversion" dialog, click the "+" button in the top left to add a new Repository.
This will open a "New Repository Location" dialog.
5. In the "New Repository Location" dialog, enter the svn checkout location of cTakes.
6. Click "Ok".
This will inspect the repository.
7. Click the "Expand" triangle.
This should display the directory listing of trunk.
8. Click "Checkout".
This will open a "Destination Directory" dialog.

9. Enter a local directory in which to keep trunk (your sandbox).
10. Click "Ok". This will open a "Checkout Options" dialog.
The default options ("Head", etc.) are fine for most users.
11. Click "Ok".
This will open a "Working Copy Format" dialog.
12. Select a (version) format and click "Ok". I use version 1.8, but any should be fine.
This will start the actual checkout and display a progress dialog. The checkout may take a little while.

13. After the checkout has completed, you a new dialog will ask you if you'd like to open the project. Click "No".

Import Project from Maven

This will open a "Select File or Directory to Import" dialog.
3. Browse to your local cTakes repository root directory and select the pom.xml file.
4. Click "Ok".
This will open an "Import Project from Maven" dialog.
5. Make sure the "Search for projects recursively" box is selected, just in case any cTakes modules are not in the pom.
6. Make sure that "Create IntelliJ IDEa modules for aggregator projects" is not selected.
If you plan to add new module, 'disable' a present cTakes module or make other changes to the main pom.xml, check the "Import Maven projects automatically" box.
See also: http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/maven-importing.html
7. Make sure that "Create module rgoups for multi-module Maven projects" is not selected.
8. Make sure that "Keep source and test folders on reimport is selected.

12. For the "Phase to be used for folders update" the default option "process-resources" should be fine.

14. The default "Dependency types" are fine.
15. Click "Environment settings...".
This will open a dialog that can be used to set options about the Maven environment.
16. The default maven environment settings should be fine. If $M2_HOME is not set in your environment you may select a "Maven home directory", but it is better to set $M2_HOME in your environment.
