## Browsing Remote Repositories

Using the `Repository Browser` it is possible to browse the structure and contents of a remote repository without performing a checkout to the local machine ( File->Browse repository ... (Ctrl+B) ).

To browse a remote repository enter the `URL` and click the Browse button. After a few seconds the tree and file views will be populated with the structure and file name resources stored in the remote repository. The `Repository Browser` also enables checkout and view operations to be executed without exiting.

A quick method to insert the `URL` string is to select the root folder of the working copy, select File->Browse repository ... (Ctrl+B) , then click the Browse button.
