Try this with String.Substring:

string str = "svn://mcdssrv/repos/currecnt/class/MBackingBean.java";
str = str.Substring(0,str.LastIndexOf('/')+1);

One more way to do that:

string str = "svn://mcdssrv/repos/currecnt/class/MBackingBean.java";
string s = Regex.Match(str, ".*/").Value;

alternate yes, but unadvisable. Regex is ugly.

@JoshW Regex clearly shows your intents, you can understand immediately that you want everything until last / including it.

Do this with String.Remove()

string s = "svn://mcdssrv/repos/currecnt/class/MBackingBean.java";
Console.WriteLine(s.Remove(s.LastIndexOf('/'))+"/");

change line Console.WriteLine(s.Remove(s.LastIndexOf('/')+"/"); to Console.WriteLine(s.Remove(s.LastIndexOf('/'))+"/");
