Prepackaged source downloadsSources for recent releases are available at SourceForge.
Getting the latest sources over SuperversionOctober 2nd, 2004, Superversion became self-hosting. In other words, you need a Superversion client in order to download the sources. The SourceForge CVS is not being updated anymore.
To download the Superversion sources, follow these steps:
- Download and install the Superversion 2.0 Beta 8 client. This document explains how you can do this (if you have Java WebStart, just click here).
- In the client, select a database directory. Click on "Remote projects".
- As server name, enter "superversion.org". Click "Connect".
- Choose "Superversion", then "Check out".
- Select a local project name, then "Check out". Hit "Add work area..." and choose the directory where you want the sources installed.
- In the default marker dialog, just press "Choose" without selecting anything.
- Enter "anonymous" as user name, leave the password field empty. Superversion now downloads the history graph, which may take a while (up to a minute).
- Go to "Work Area/Choose default marker...". Pick the marker you want (Stable for the latest stable version, Beta for the latest beta). Select "Choose".
- Answer Yes to perform the actual download.
That's it. It does involve a number of steps, but each of them is very simple.
CompilingAlthough Superversion can be run with JDK 1.4 or JRE 1.4, it can only be compiled under JDK 1.5.
- Install Ant and add the bin directory to your system path
- Download the Superversion sources as explained above
- Copy lib/junit.jar from the Superversion tree to the lib directory of your Ant installation
- Change to the Superversion base directory and type "ant". Ant will try to compile and run Superversion.
