Subversion is an open source version control system. It will make you safe and efficient to do collaboration work with your team members. We use eclipse plugin Subversive to integrate SVN to eclipse platform.
Here we use eclipse 3.5.1+Subversive 0.7.8.
Step 1:
Download Subversive from here: http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/downloads.php
Choose a suitable version for your eclipse platform.
Here we download Subversive-incubation-0.7.8.I20090904-1300.zip.
Download Subversive Connector from here: http://community.polarion.com/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/builds/
Choose the latest stable version or other suitable version.
Here we download Subversive-connectors-2.2.1.I20090925-2100.zip.
Step 2:
Unzip these two zip files and fire up eclipse.
Click Help>Install New Software.
Click Add>Local and select the location of Subversive-incubation folder.
Select all the components from the list and follow the installation guide.
After installation, restart eclipse and repeat it for Subversive Connector.
Step 3:
Configure a SVN server in the eclipse.
Click Window>Show View>Other>SVN>SVN Repositories.
Then in the SVN Repositories view, right click and select New>Repository Location.
Define the SVN repository location information and click Finish.
Then a new repository location is created. Right click it and you can check out it as a local project.
When you are ready to share code with others, you may right click your project and Select Team>Share Project.
When you want to synchronize your local resource with your team members, you may use Team>Update.
When you want to commit your code, you may use Team>Commit.
