Subversion (latest version)

Hi,

I'm on CenOS 4.5, and the latest package that's available via yum is 1.1.4, which is now 2 years old. It's clearly very out of date. I was wondering if ART is going to have a newer version available?

Thanks!

never really considered it. Im sort of toying with the source code system Im going to use here, either Subversion, or GIT. Depending on which one I decide to go with, I'll make rpms for. At the moment, Im leaning toward GIT.

Subversion seems to be the choice for majority of people. There is also a nice little tutorial available on how to set it up with Plesk:

Im not sure its what I need for a projects like ART and ASL. Ive been working with it a bit, and it seems more in tune with running collaborative environments like Ive got. It also does away with the centralized model used by Subversion and CVS that make them such a pain in the ass to maintain.

You can get Subversion 1.4 packages at Dag/RPMForge.

There is another popular yum repository for Fedora/CentOS/Red Hat servers that has subversion and mod_dav_svn packages available. See http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#B for instructions on how to add this repository (you can use the RHEL4 version on CentOS4).

I have found that there is one package in that repository you need to exclude, because it clashes with one of the SWsoft supplied packages. Edit /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo and add the following at the bottom:

Code: Select all

exclude=perl-Apache-ASP

After that you can run 'yum install subversion mod_dav_svn' to install the 1.4 versions on your server.
