Some pointers about the subversion (svn) tool

The subversion (a.k.a svn) tool

The subversion (svn) tool is what is used to keep track of the various versions of the PCM source codes. Quite similar to the also well known git tool.

Some useful svn commands

TODO: Put some examples here of using ... checkout ... update ... status ... diff

Some typical svn errors you may run into

If when trying t use an svn command you get a message of the likes of:

svn: E155036: The working copy at ....
is too old (format 29) to work with client version '1.10.2 (r1835932)' (expects format 31). You need to upgrade the working copy first.

This simply means that your svn tool has been upgraded to a more recent version and that you need to upgrade your current repository to follow up. In order to do that simply do

svn upgrade

And then you can keep using svn as before.
