Practical Subversion, Second Edition
An open source version control project, Subversion is enjoying considerable interest due to its stated intention of resolving longstanding problems found within the aging Concurrent Versioning System (CVS), long the standard solution for millions of projects around the globe. Accordingly, high-profile companies and open source project teams are migrating en masse to Subversion, some of which include all projects maintained by the Apache Software Foundation, Python, Samba, Mono, and Plone. Further, SourceForge.net recently announced Subversion support for its more than 120,000 hosted projects, meaning the more than 1 million members now have the opportunity to begin taking advantage of Subversion's superior management features. Updated to reflect the most recent changes to the popular Subversion version control system, Practical Subversion, Second Edition this new edition offers valuable information pertinent to the new filesystem backend for repositories, support for the lock-modify-unlock model of development, full WebDAV autoversioning, and improved language bindings for the APIs.
