2. On the Source and Target page of the wizard, select Source Control as a source type.

3. In the Repository menu, click + New to open the Source Control Repository Properties dialog.

4. In the Source Control Repository Properties dialog that opens, select Subversion (SVN) as a source control system from the Source control system dropdown list and specify the following information:

• Server URL, User name, and Password for the SVN server.
• Database folder. To do this, click Browse to choose the folder where SQL scripts will be stored.
• Optional: The Repository name is automatically derived from the server URL. However, you can specify a different name of the repository.
