SVN check out linux

My uname -a reads :

root@edu [~]# uname -a
Linux edu.educationlinked.com 2.6.18-028stab068.3 #1 SMP Tue Feb 16 20:21:42 MSK 2010 x86_64 开发者_开发知识库x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I am not sure which Linux OS is this?

I already have a repository hosted at a free repository and i use Tortoise SVN on windows as the client. I need to do the check out etc on a Linux machine mentioned above.

I have read and read and got confused about what to use? Can someone please help me.

There should be svn utility on you box, if installed:

$ svn checkout http://example.com/svn/somerepo somerepo

This will check out a working copy from a specified repository to a directory somerepo on our file system.

You may want to print commands, supported by this utility:

$ svn help

uname -a output in your question is identical to one, used by Parallels Virtuozzo Containers for Linux 4.0 kernel, which is based on Red Hat 5 kernel, thus your friends are rpm or the following command:

$ sudo yum install subversion

You can use checkout or co

$ svn co http://example.com/svn/app-name directory-name

Some short codes:-

1. checkout (co)
2. commit (ci)
3. copy (cp)
4. delete (del, remove,rm)
5. diff (di)
