Install Subversion

  1. To check: Run svn --version on the command line
    • http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html
    • Get the subversion binaries and not the source, if possible
    • If there are no binaries for your platform, get the source and use the configuration options --with-ssl and --with-libs
  2. Extract to /opt (should create subversion-1.2.3)
    • Windows users will want to rename the extracted directory
    • Unix users will probably want to use a package for their flavor
  3. Set environment variable: SUBVERSION_HOME=/opt/subversion-1.2.3
  4. Add $SUBVERSION_HOME/bin to PATH
