importing into subversion

Hi, i have read a lot online, and am confused as to how you import a project
into your repository.

This page  http://www.germane-software.com/~ser/R_n_R/subversion.html here 
says that you should create the dir structure (trunk, tags, branches) before
you import your project.

Whereas this page 
http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2004/08/10/subversion.html?page=2 here 
suggests you import your project as is, but append /trunk to the import line
e.g

svn import -m "Importing project widget" \
~/MyWorkArea/ProjectWidget \
http://localhost:8008/svn/ProjectWidget/trunk

Which is correct? are they any different?

Please can someone help.

Hello.

You've emailed the Subversion development list, which is focused on
discussion about the development of Subversion, not usage questions.
Your message is more appropriate for the users@ list.  In the future,
please send similar questions there.

That being said, you may be able to find some information by looking in
the "Getting Data into your Repository" section of the Subversion Book:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.tour.importing.html

Good luck,
-Hyrum
