Version Control Systems and the
Subversion
Kloimstein Dominik
Overview
• Basic information about VCS/Subversion
• Standard commands of Subversion
• Branching and Merging
What is a Version Control System?
• Standard software update process
Software xyz
Version 2.0.12
• In general version 2.0.11 is deleted – use
2.0.12
What is a Version Control System?
• Same update process with arbitrary files
Textfile x
Last change:
10.10.2010
Textfile x
Last change:
10.12.2010
• Also first textfile will be overriden

What is a Version Control System?
• Manages all versions of files or directories in
the system
• Subversion is a open source VCS
What are Revisions?
• Are like version numbers of files or directories
• Each change of a file increases the revision
number by 1
• Subversion gives the whole filesystem a number
• Such a filesystem tree is called repository
What are Revisions?
File sharing problem
File sharing problem
• Lock-modify-unlock solution
File sharing problem
• Problems are:
– Administration (enough rights to lock)
– Performance (one user must wait)
– False sense of security
• Harry works on File A
• Sally works on File B
• A and B are depend on each other
File sharing problem
• Copy-modify-merge solution
File sharing problem
• Copy-modify-merge solution
File sharing problem
• Subversion use the copy-modify-merge
method
• No waiting
• Problem of so called conflicts
– Same problem with different results
– Overlaping of changes
– Solution: Communication (direct talk or put a flag)
• Subversion can also lock files
– Necessary for sound or graphic files
Repository
How to work with Subversion
• svn [command] [URL]
– $ svn checkout http://svn.example.com/repos/calc
• URL-forms:
– file:/// - direct local access
– http:// - access to a Apache server
– https:// - same as http with SSL encryption
– svn:// -access to a Subversion server
– svn+ssh:// - same as svn through SSH tunnel
How to work with Subversion
• file:///C:/svn/repos
• file:///svn/repos
• file:///localhost/svn/repos
• http://svn.example.com/repos
• http://svn.example.com:9834/repos
Commands
• The most often used commands are:
– svn add URL
– svn delete URL
– svn copy URL1 URL2
– svn move URL1 URL2
– svn mkdir URL
Commands
• checkout – copy files to the local working
directory
$ svn checkout http://svn.example.com/repos/calc
A calc/Makefile
A calc/integer.c
A calc/button.c
Checked out revision 1.
Commands
• commit – submit one or several files to the
server
$ svn commit button.c
Sending button.c
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 57.
• Command commit maybe don‘t change files –
solution command update
Commands

to the server
$ svn update
Updating '.':
U button.c
Updated to revision 58.
Commands
• import – import a file or directory to the
repository

http://svn.example.com/repo/some/project
Adding mytree/foo.c
Adding mytree/bar.c
Adding mytree/subdir

Branching and Merging
• Trunc – is the main directory
• Branch – is a copy of a file or directory of the
trunc section with small differences
• Tag – is a kind of „snapshot“ of a revision
• Merge – is the combining of two branches (or
to combine the branch back with the trunc)
Branching and Merging
Branching and Merging
• Tag – example
$ svn copy http://svn.example.com/repos/calc/trunk \
http://svn.example.com/repos/calc/tags/release-1.0 \
Committed revision 902.
Branching and Merging
• Merge – example
$ svn merge --reintegrate ^/calc/branches/my-calc-branch
--- Merging differences between repository URLs into '.':
U button.c
U integer.c
U Makefile
--- Recording mergeinfo for merge between repository URLs into '.':
U.
$ svn commit -m "Merge my-calc-branch back into trunk!"
Sending .
Sending button.c
