OK to submit tar file in the "handin" folder

[Michael Terry]

A number of people are having problems submitting via the handin folder.
This appears to be due to them exporting .svn folders (which then
confuses subversion).

There are a couple of ways to deal with this.

1). Via a terminal in the *handin* folder, *after* exporting your
project, do:

find . -name .svn -exec rm -Rf {} \;

This will delete all of the existing .svn folders in the handin folder.

2). Tar up your source and submit the tar file instead. We can handle
untar'ing it.
