The goal of the Subversion project is to build a version control system that is a compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community. The software is released under an Apache/BSD-style open source license. This package contains all the Subversion programs and libraries except the Apache module mod_dav_svn (for which see the ap2-subversion package) and the Python bindings and some programs which use them (for which see the py-subversion package). Installing this package alone will satisfy most people's needs, providing all three repository access layers (local, svn, and dav) and the server for the svn access layer.
Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
Problem reports, updates or suggestions for this package should be reported with send-pr.
