Get Subversion!

Subversion packages exist for a number of different operating systems. Remember, once you have it installed, most of your questions can be answered by reading the Subversion Book.

Source Code

The latest source release can be found in this directory, in the file-sharing area of the Subversion website. Be sure to read the general instructions for building from the source tarball, and the specific instructions within the source code itself.
