39 <para><application>Subversion</application> is a version control
40 system that is designed to be a compelling replacement for
41 <application>CVS</application> in the open source community. It
42 extends and enhances <application>CVS</application>' feature set,
43 while maintaining a similar interface for those already familiar with
44 <application>CVS</application>. These instructions install the client
45 and server software used to manipulate a
46 <application>Subversion</application> repository. Creation of a repository
47 is covered at <xref linkend="svnserver"/>.</para>
48
49 <caution>
50 <para>For reasons that are not yet fully understood,
51 <application>Subversion</application> repositories based on some versions
52 of <application>Berkeley DB</application> (notably 4.4.x) may not perform
53 reliably. Though there have been no reports of corrupted databases caused
54 by this issue, the <application>Subversion</application> test suite may
55 report a failure in one of the tests due to problems opening a repository
56 based on <application>Berkeley DB</application>. This issue only affects
57 BDB-based repositories on a local installation and does not affect access
58 to a BDB-based repository on a remote system.</para>
59
60 <para>To eliminate any problems that may be associated with this issue,
61 you are encouraged (as well as recommended by the
62 <application>Subversion</application> development team) to use
63 File System based repositories. Additionally, if you have existing
64 repositories based on <application>Berkeley DB</application>, you are
65 encouraged to dump and reload them into a File System based
66 repository.</para>
