Did this work for you?

I tried it without luck...

Here is a link to a programming forum that has a few discussions on Subversion. You have to register to access the content but it's free and very safe and secure. I am a member there and know the clientele very well, they are a good bunch of guys and very helpful too.

This worked for me. The only difference is that I changed the file from version 1.3.0 to 1.3.2. My $HOME/bin directory now has the svn client and utilities.

I might need a little help then!

I have created "bin" in the home dir.

Does it want me to input something here?:

user@machine% ./configure --prefix=$HOME --without-berkeley-db --with-zlib --with-ssl

I don't quite understand what he's saying (in the tutorial):

You will want to make sure that $HOME/bin is part of your PATH, too.

Thanks for the help!

This is all that I did...

cd

mkdir src

cd src

wget http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.3.2.tar.gz

tar -xzvf subversion-1.3.2.tar.gz

cd subversion-1.3.2

./configure --prefix=$HOME --without-berkeley-db --with-zlib --with-ssl

make

make install

After the above steps were executed, it had updated the /man, /build, /include, /info, /lib, and /bin directories that support the subversion client modules. I did not receive any prompts, or if I did, I don't remember them and accepted the defaults.

If you did not already have /bin in your home directory, you probably will need to update your $PATH statement in your shell profile to include it (later).

If you follow the code snipet above line by line, make note of any errors you get (other than the normal plethora of output warnings from the config and make scripts) and post them...otherwise, you should have a working subversion client installed for your user account.

I hope this helps.

Well dang... I must have done something stupid like forget make install... works now!

Thank you very much!

I would also like to see subversion support - cvs is so yesterday!

yes it worked for me

Are we more likely to see Subversion if we start threatening to switch hosts? I don't want to pay a separate host simply to have Subversion support. So, if I have to switch hosts to get Subversion, I'll take my business elsewhere...
