    1037This section below contains a collection of the most used svn commands including some examples. This page does not claim to be complete. For further reading use the built-in help function from svn. The syntax is ''svn help <command>'', if command is omitted, a complete list of valid svn command in printed to the comsole. Furthermore it is assumed that the user has a basic understanding of the shell and knows the way around in the file structure. Svn allows for most of the flexibilities the bash shell allow.[[br]][[br]]

    1239These are some examples, which are elaborated further down.

     73
     74The checkout command is used to create a local copy of a svn subtree on the local computer.
     75
     76The syntax used is ''svn co -r <revision> <remote-path> <local-path>'', if -r <revision> is omitted, the HEAD revision is assumed, which is also the newest one, if <local-path> is omitted the last remote folder will be used as <local-path>.

     93Update is closely related to checkout, as it also download - or updates - the svn tree. while checkout is normally only used once, update is used all the time.
     94
     95The syntax is ''svn up <local-path>'', if <local-path> is omitted the current update will be allied to the current directory.
     96
     97This will update the current folder including subfolders.
     98{{{

     114Sometimes also called checkin, does the opposite of checkout or update, it upload changes made to the local copy to the server.
     115
     116The syntax is ''svn ci -m <commit message> <local-path>'', if <local-path> is omitted, the current directory is assumed, if -m <commit message> is ommited, an editor will pop up where you can (and should) write a meaningful commit message.
     117
     118This will checkin the current directory including subfolders with the comment "initial upload"
     119{{{
     120svn ci -m "initial upload"
     121}}}
     122
     123A commit is only possible if the local version is up-to-date. If it isn't you will get an error, and the commit will fail. The solution then is to do an [wiki:SVN#updateup update].

     146
     147The syntax is ''svn rm <file/folder>''.

     178A command which is rarely used on the local tree - why would someone need a file twice in the same tree? - but it is rather useful to create new branches. Though it is normally done by the supervisors, it can be done by the students.
     179
     180The syntax is ''svn cp <source-tree> <target-tree>'' or ''svn cp <source-files> <target>''

    121192If a conflict arises - this normally happens if someone changes a file on the server (committed it) while you were doing changes in the same place. This command '''does not solve''' the conflict, but it removes the other unnecessary files.

    131206One of the major advantages of a version control system, is that you can always revert to a known saved state - in this case the last updated local revision. Revert removes all local changes and restores the file to a state prior editing, i.e discarding all local changes.

    141220Another rarely used but very useful command. It shows the difference between the downloaded revision and the current state, which basically what will be uploaded at the next commit. It is also useful to check if all new files have been added to the svn tree - it happens very often, that there are two commits in short time, first the updates, then the new files.
