You want to participate in open source community like WordPress or Google Code. Most of them use Subversion. Subversion is used to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation .That’s why you need a Subversion client to access Subversion server.
Access Subversion is as easy as Window Explorer.
There are many subversion clients out there, i won’t discuss all of them, only one, TortoiseSVN
Why do i like TortoiseSVN? because it’s mini, quick and easy to use.
Download the TortoiseSVN and install it to your computer.
You’ll get TortoiseSVN menu on desktop > right-click
Repo Browser is a shortcut to access Subversion hosted server, such as WordPress or Google Code (TortoiseSVN -> Repo Browser). Repo Browser is like a mini version of Windows Explorer
When you open Repo Browser you’ll ask to input your URL, that’s an URL of your Repository, where your files were saved in Subversion. Mostly use this address, example http://www.yourweb.com/yourprogram/
Once you entered the Subversion repository, you can add, edit, delete files in that repository. Add a file to Subversion with Repo Browser is easy, you’ll get your address and its directories in left window. Right-click the trunk directory, choose add file menu and upload.
Repo Browser doesn’t have menu bar, just right-click the directory name, it will pop up menu or commands for Subversion
