Tortoise SVN Quick start Manual – Summary
Posted on 10. Apr, 2009 by Jonathan in Tortoise SVN (Subversion)
Tortoise SVN is a subversion client for windows with vast functionality. I am just going to go over the basics here of how it works and how you can use it to keep in sync. with your fellow developers.
Subversion is a centralized system for sharing information. At its core is a repository, which is a central-store of data. The repository stores information in the form of a filesystem tree – a typical hierarchy of files and directories. Any number of clients can connect to the repository, and then read or write to these files. By writing data, a client makes the information available to others; by reading data, the client receives information from others.
