Subversion is still in the early phases of development, and as such it was felt (by the subversion developers) that it was a little too early to have an official port in the freebsd ports tree. If you follow the subversion-development mailing-list, you'll see that there is an unofficial freeBSD port available. Here is a recent message about it: Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2002 19:40:41 -0500 From: Garrett Rooney Subject: Subversion 0.8 FreeBSD port an updated FreeBSD port for Subversion 0.8 is now available, either from the svn repository, or from the usual location at: http://electricjellyfish.net/subversion.tar.gz -- garrett rooney Unix was not designed to stop you from rooneg@electricjellyfish.net doing stupid things, because that would http://electricjellyfish.net/ stop you from doing clever things. I hope this helps. (For those wondering what subversion is, it's meant as an alternative to 'cvs' for source-code management. It looks very promising, imo) -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
