+= Version Control with Subversion (svn) =
+== What is SVN? ==
+* A free/open-source version control system.
+* Managing files and directories over time, placed into a central repository.
+* The repository remembers every changes ever made to the files and directories.
+* Accessible across networks, allowing to be used on different computers.
+* Runs on Many platforms.
+

+
+== Good things... ==
+* If you develop a software with some other people, it keeps track of who did what when and where changes.
+   * even if you develop a software yourself...
+* When you made a stupid change and screwed up ....
+   * Allows you to go back. 
+   * Revert to a previous revision of a file/directory.
+
+[[Image()]]
+
+== First things to do ==
+* Create a repository on ''Cypress''
+ svnadmin create $HOME/repos
+This creates a repository under '$HOME/repos'.
+
+Note that $HOME is your home-directory on ''sphynx''. 
+
+Once you did this, you don't have to do this again.  Do not delete '$HOME/repos' !!!
+
+* Testing your repository
+On ''sphynx'',
+ mkdir mywork
+ cd mywork
+ mkdir project1
+ echo "This is README.txt" > README.txt 
+ svn import file:///$HOME/repos/project1 -m"initial import"
+Now you have ''project1'' in your repository.
+
+Delete ''project1'' then checkout ''project1'' from the repository, 
+ cd ..
+ rm -rf project1
+ svn co file:///$HOME/repos/project1 ./project1
+
+=== Working with SVN ===
+* To download files in a repository, use ''''svn checkout'''' / ''''svn co'''' command.
+* If you made some changes to the files in your local machine and want to upload these to the repository, use ''''svn commit'''' command.
+* If you have files on your local machine and want to update these to the latest version in the repository, use ''''svn update'''' command.
+* If you want to add a file/direcotry, use ''''svn add'''' and commit.
+* If you want to delete a file/directory, use ''''svn delete'''' and commit.
+
+=== What to Control ===
+* Source Code
+* Documents
+* Variable data
+* Anything you want to share that isn't essentially static data.
+'''Do not upload.... Large sets of binary files; images, movie, music....'''
+
+=== Accessing your Repository over Network ===
+To access your Repository on ''sphynx' through ''ssh'' from other hosts,
+ svn co svn+ssh://''USERNAME''@sphynx.ccs.tulane.edu/''HOME_DIRCTORY''/repos/project1 ./project1
+
+You will be asked for typing your password on ''sphynx''.
+
+''USERNAME'' and ''HOME_DIRCTORY'' are your login user name and home directory on ''sphynx''. 
+
+To see the path of your home directory, on ''sphynx''
+ cat $HOME
+
+* Using svn-client software with GUI
+** There are Windows Versions and Mac OS versions.
