Where to find prebuilt binaries for subversion 1.6 for Ubuntu (or Debian)?

While I can easily find the binaries for the latest version of subversion (1.6) I can't find the binaries for Ubuntu (or Debian). The download page at tigris.org suggest to use the command: apt-get install subversion but as you can experience this will install up to the version 1.5.4 (at the time of writing May 6, 2009).

Are merges in subversion more difficult than in Team Foundation System?

I'm used to using TFS, and my company is now switching to SVN for a new project (the main reason is to better incorporate our java & .Net codebase under the same source control).

I am using the SCM Tools embedded in XCode to manage my app's versioning. I have created an iPhone app and I have added/committed it to the Subversion server but the .xcodeproj file won't upload (all the class files, resources etc are there)!

How do I use global revision number keyword with TortoiseSVN?

In CVS you can use keywords in your code that are expanded when checking the files out. I'd like to display the global revision as CVS has with the $GlobalRev$ keyword.

Subversion ignore classes directory after its been added (and linked to src directory)

I'm using TortoiseSVN on Windows V...

So all my files for this repository are residing in the root.

How do I protect the trunk from hapless newbies?

A coworker relayed the following problem, let's say it's fictional to protect the guilty: A team of 5-10 works on a project which is issue-driven.

Enable anonymous Access (svnserv)

Hey there, Some time ago I set up a Svn Repository (svnserv as far as I remember), using svn+ssh for authentication.

SVN to ZIP on the fly

I've installed VisualSVN on my Windows 2003 server, and have configured it to provide anonymous read-access.

Web portals like SourceForge and Codepl...

Where does Windows store ACLs and do ACLs follow a file from one machine to another?

Our app uses a component that requires a license file in the directory with our executable, which happens to be a .NET WinForms app though I think it is immaterial to this question. When installed on some XP Pro machines (just three out of several hundred thus far), the component throws a license exception. So I regenerated the license f...
