Package svn-doc-1.4.4-11

The goal of the Subversion project is to build a version control system that is a compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community. Subversion's Features: - Most current CVS features - Directories, renames, and file meta-data are versioned - Commits are truly atomic - Branching and tagging are cheap (constant time) operations - Client/server protocol sends diffs in both directions - Time costs are proportional to change size, not data size - Efficient handling of binary files - it uses a binary diffing algorithm to transmit and store successive revisions - Versioning of symbolic links - Choice of database or plain-file repository implementations - Apache network server option, with WebDAV/DeltaV protocol - Standalone server option Subversion is broken into these packages in fink: - The "svn-client" package installs a command-line client program for using subversion.
