The intended audience is experienced Linux users and system administrators. If you are new to Subversion, this section provides a quick introduction. Subversion is an open source version control system. Using Subversion, you can record the history of source files and documents. It manages files and directories over time. It is assumed that you are aware of how to run Linux commands, edit files, start/stop services in an Ubuntu system. It is also assumed you have an internet connection. To make an SVN repository available to access using the HTTP protocol, you must install & configure web server.

Introduction Subversion is a free/open-source version control system, usually used for keep track of changes to source code.
Subversion manages files and directories over time and increments revisions made to the file system. A tree of files is placed into a central repository. This repository is much like an ordinary file server, except that it remembers every change ever made to your files and directories. This allows you to recover older versions of your files and examine the history of how the data has changed.
Subversion allows access to its repository via the network, which allows it to be used by people on different computers at the same time. Subversion also saves space, because it stores deltas from one version to the next. Subversion will work on most modern distribututions of BSD or GNU/Linux, but for our article here we will be using a Debian based distribution of GNU/Linux.
Subversion Binary Packages. The Apache Subversion project does not officially endorse or maintain any binary packages of the Subversion software.
However, volunteers have created binary packages for different distributions and platforms, and as a convenience, we maintain a list of links to them here. If there are any problems with or questions about the different binary packages please send email to the Subversion users mailing list. Note that binary packages usually come out about a week after the corresponding source release. Please don't post to the mailing lists asking when a binary package for a given platform will be ready. The packagers already know when new source releases come out, and work as fast as they can to make binaries available. Binaries are typically built from the latest stable release. Note also that this list does not include distributions of larger collections of software of which Subversion is but one piece.
