This is a quick article I had for quite a while as a draft. It might not be finished or have other problems, but I still want to share it.

Subversion or Apache Subversion or short svn is a is a software versioning and a revision control system. This allows you to step back to any point of the software and to develop simultaniously on the same project (but not on the same file). You have to make sure that no dependencies are broken, of course.

Here is a little cheat sheet how to use SVN. I will demonstrate some on my Google Code OpenSource project Community Chess.

All commands are executed while I'm in my local working copy of the repository.

Get the repository

svn checkout https://community-chess.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ community-chess --username [email protected]

Update to the latest version

svn update

Check for changes

If you only want to check which files were modified, added or deleted you can execute

svn status

This will show your local changes.

File actions

The actions are simmilar to the console commands, but you have to add svn:

Copy

svn cp myFile.php copiedFile.php

Delete

svn rm myFile.php

Rename / Move

svn mv myFile.php folder/myNewFile.php

Add file

If you created a file and want to submit it with the next commit, just do

svn add myFile.php

Commit the latest changes

Check your changes

First you should try svn status. What files did you change? Do you really want to upload those changes?

If svn status gives you an exclamation mark (!), you might have deleted a file which you wanted to add before. No problem. Just make

svn rever /path/to/your/file.php

I'm fine: Upload it!

This is the command you use, if you want to send the changes you made on your working copy to the repository:

svn commit -m "Moved some functions to additional.inc.php to keep the project more flexible; Much work for tournament implementation done; Some Warnings fixed" --username [email protected]

Watch changes

General

See the last three changes:

I don't want to get that much output, so I don't apply -v this time:
