pseudo-flavour, it affects the -main package by building with pthread (we don't want that by default, it affects e.g. svn diff | less). - roll various PFRAG.shared-foo for the subpackages into PLIST-foo - add a comment noting that autoconf should be 2.63 - bump PKGNAMEs ok stsp (maintainer).

Subversion is a free/open-source version control system. That is,
|
|
Subversion manages files and directories over time. A tree of files
|
|
is placed into a central repository. The repository is much like an
|
|
ordinary file server, except that it remembers every change ever made
|
|
to your files and directories. This allows you to recover older versions
|
|
of your data, or examine the history of how your data changed.
|
|
In this regard, many people think of a version control system as a
|
|
sort of time machine.
|
|
|
|
Note that you need to install the following subpackages to gain
|
|
the appropriate functionality:
|
|
-perl Perl bindings to Subversion
|
|
-python Python bindings to Subversion
|
|
-ruby Ruby bindings to Subversion
|
|
-ap2 Apache httpd 2 modules for Subversion
|
|
Flavors:
|
|
gnome_keyring: Compile with support for gnome-keyring
|
|
|
|
Also note that plaintext-password caching is disabled by default
|
|
by setting "store-plaintext-passwords" to "no" in ${SYSCONFDIR}/subversion/servers.
|
|
This is a different default behaviour to a standard subversion install,
|
|
which would ask the user before storing passwords in plaintext.
