I. A FEW POINTERS

For an overview of the Subversion project, visit

http://subversion.apache.org/

Once you have a Subversion client you can get the latest version
of the code with the command:

$ svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk subversion

II. DOCUMENTATION

The main documentation is the Subversion Book - an on-line version
can be found at:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/

It is written in DocBook XML, and the sources can be found at:

http://svn.code.sf.net/p/svnbook/source/trunk/

If you wish to build the documentation from source, read the
en/README file within the book source.

III. PARTICIPATING IN THE SUBVERSION COMMUNITY

First, read http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/
It describes Subversion coding and log message standards, as well
as how to join discussion lists.

Talk on IRC with developers: irc.freenode.net, channel #svn-dev.

Read the FAQ: http://subversion.apache.org/faq.html

IV. QUICKSTART GUIDE

See the final section of the first chapter of the Subversion Book.

V. CONVERTING FROM CVS

If you're a CVS user trying to move your CVS history over to
Subversion, then be sure to visit the 'cvs2svn' project:

http://cvs2svn.tigris.org

You can get the latest released version of the cvs2svn converter
from the project downloads area:

http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=2976

Please note that the cvs2svn project is a *separate* project from
Subversion. If you have problems with cvs2svn or are confused,
please email the cvs2svn project's mailing lists, not the
Subversion lists.

Finally, be sure to see Appendix B in the Subversion Book. It
contains a very quick overview of the major differences between
CVS and Subversion.
