Subversion structure

Post by F.J. Sánchez »

Hi, I cannot understand the svn structure at all, can anyone explain this? There are psp and pspware folders, and inside of both branches, trunk, tags, vendor... what is each one for?

Thank you.

You perhaps should read the subversion book (which is available from their website) Simply trunk is the main development line, tags are specific revisions which are put there and shouldn't really be altered, branches are forks in code bases so you can work on stuff without affecting the mainline stuff. You will most likely only care about trunk.

Also, just to add to Tyranid'scomments, there is actually five diverent Subversion repositories. This is why there is trunk, etc under each repository.

psp is for the main psp sdk, libraries and tools.
pspware is for applications for psp.
ps2 is for ps2 sdk, libraries and tools.
ps2ware is for ps2 applications.
test is just a play area to learn about subversion and test configurations.

Hope that helps,
David. aka Oobles.
