Using TortoiseSVN, is there any way to commit a file to a repo without checking out a working copy frst?

Question

I have a new text file I want to commit to a certain folder in a repo. However the way I understand it, I have to first checkout (create a working copy) of that folder, and then only can I commit this new text file.

Is there any way I can bypass the step of checking out the folder, since the folder has other files in it which are pretty huge in file size.

Thanks to Siddharth Kaul for pointing to another answer which helped!

For anyone stumbling on here and wants an answer, you can do

svn checkout [url] --depth empty

which will checkout the folder without any of the files
