What's SVN? (I actually want to do an upgrade on my wiki, but putting it off for now). --SB_Johnny talk 12:33, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

SVN is a client software wich work by an update of only changed file until the installed current version in the client computer. A modification of a code source take an ID (ask as version) in the SVNadmin (software master) and when you ak an update ( by the command svn up) the SVN client tell to the master its current version, and the master send the update needing to reach the current version. This system allows to know all the source code changes.
This system work in the upgrade, but it's the same if you want to downgrade, you can ask to the SVN client to use an older version by the ID if the newest do not work well.
to use the update via SVN, requires that the installation is made also under SVN Crochet.david 13:07, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
