Description

Apache Subversion exists to be universally recognized and adopted as an open-source, centralized version control system characterized by its reliability as a safe haven for valuable data; the simplicity of its model and usage; and its ability to support the needs of a wide variety of users and projects, from individuals to large-scale enterprise operations. Note that you need to install the following subpackages to gain the appropriate functionality: -perl Perl bindings to Subversion -python Python bindings to Subversion -ruby Ruby bindings to Subversion -ap2 Apache httpd 2 modules for Subversion -gnome-keyring Store Subversion passwords in gnome-keyring Also note that plaintext-password caching is disabled by default by setting "store-plaintext-passwords" to "no" in ${SYSCONFDIR}/subversion/servers. This is a different default behaviour to a standard Subversion install, which would ask the user before storing passwords in plaintext.
