Take a look at the Subversion manual at http://svnbook.com. It is a very well written manual on using, installing, and administering Subversion. That'll give you a good idea how Subversion works and give you an excellent opportunity to learn all about Subversion. Others have already pointed you to some great resources > 1) Need information about the SVN server and build software version > and names. > The latest release of Subversion is version 1.6.9. Subversion isn't "build software". It is merely a repository for source files. If you need build software, take a look at Hudson which works great with Subversion. Hudson is also an open source project and is quickly becoming the standard build system for many organizations because it is so extendable and easy to use. http://hudson-ci.org. > 2) SVN Client version and names. > There's a command line interface to Subversion that you get when you install the basic Subversion package. The Subversion book takes you through that. However, Subversion clients are many. If you work on Windows, a popular one is TortoiseSVN. If you work on the Mac, you can get Path Finder (a $50 finder replacement). Both of these integrate Subversion right into the file browsing software. If you use a IDE like Eclipse, there is an excellent chance that the IDE has a built in Subversion client. Most of these built in Subversion clients are also free and open source. -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
