It extends and enhances CVS' feature set, while maintaining a similar interface for those already familiar with CVS. These instructions install the client and server software used to manipulate a Subversion repository. Creation of a repository is covered at . &lfs72_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &subversion-md5sum; Download size: &subversion-size; Estimated disk space required: &subversion-buildsize; Estimated build time: &subversion-time; Additional Downloads Required patch: Subversion Dependencies Required , and or serf. If you require the Berkeley DB back-end hooks in Subversion to build or support BDB based repositories, you must have APR-util linked to the Berkeley DB library. Optional (required to run the test suite), , , , , , KWallet from KDE and . Optional (for the Java Bindings) One of , Dante, or Jikes, and (to test the Java bindings) Optional (for the SWIG Bindings) SWIG and . User Notes: Installation of Subversion Install Subversion by running the following commands: patch -Np1 -i ../subversion-&subversion-version;-build_fixes-1.patch && ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make If you have installed and you wish to build the API documentation, issue: doxygen doc/doxygen.conf. If you passed the parameter to configure and wish to build the Java bindings, issue the following command: make javahl Perl and/or Python If you have a multi core CPU and normally run make with multiple jobs (eg make -j4) then a bug in the Makefile will prevent the Perl bindings compiling correctly. Fix the Makefile with this sed: sed -i 's#Makefile.PL.in$#& libsvn_swig_perl#' Makefile.in && To compile the Perl and/or Python bindings issue any or all of the following commands: make swig-pl && make swig-py To test the results, issue: make check. To test the results of the Java bindings build, issue make check-javahl. Note you must have the JUnit testing framework installed. To test the results of any or all of the SWIG bindings, you can use the following commands: make check-swig-pl && make check-swig-py Now, as the root user: make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/subversion-&subversion-version; && cp -v -R doc/* \ /usr/share/doc/subversion-&subversion-version; If you built the Java bindings, issue the following command as the root user to install them: make install-javahl If you built any of the SWIG bindings, issue any or all of the following commands as the root user to install them: make install-swig-pl && make install-swig-py In order for Python to automatically discover the bindings, add /usr/lib/svn-python to the PYTHONPATH environment variable to the system or personal profiles. Command Explanations : This stops it installing static versions of the libraries. Configuring Subversion Config Files ~/.subversion/config and /etc/subversion/config ~/.subversion/config /etc/subversion/config Configuration Information /etc/subversion/config is the Subversion system-wide configuration file. This file is used to specify defaults for different svn commands. ~/.subversion/config is the user's personal configuration file. It is used to override the system-wide defaults set in /etc/subversion/config.
