The software is released under an Apache/BSD-style open -source license. +Subversion 1.6 and 1.7 have different client side style, that is, +Subversion 1.7 has only one .svn directory in top of working copy, +and contents of .svn is sqlite3 based. +Subversion 1.6 has .svn directory in each directories in working copy. +Convertion to 1.7 style from 1.6 is done by svn upgrade, and this +upgrade is irreversible. -This is a meta-package. It installs no files, but it depends on all -the Subversion components, including the base package with the -subversion client and server, the apache module, and four language -bindings. (If you just want the basic svn and svnadmin programs see -devel/subversion-base.) +If you will continue to use old style working copy, please keep to +use subversion16 package. This package tracks 1.6.x release branch. |
