-== Using Subversion
-
-[[svn-intro]]
-=== Introduction
-
-As of December 2020, FreeBSD uses git as the primary version control system for storing all of FreeBSD's source code and documentation.
-Changes from the git repo on the `stable/11`, `stable/12` and related releng branches are exported to the Subversion repository.
-This export will continue through the life of these branches.
-From July 2012 to March 2021, FreeBSD used Subversion as the only version control system for storing all of FreeBSD's Ports Collection.
-As of April 2021, FreeBSD uses git as the only version control system for storing all of FreeBSD's Ports Collection.
-
-[NOTE]
-====
-Subversion is generally a developer tool.
-Users may prefer to use `freebsd-update` (crossref:cutting-edge[updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate,“FreeBSD Update”]) to update the FreeBSD base system, and `git` (crossref:ports[ports-using,“Using the Ports Collection”]) to update the FreeBSD Ports Collection.
-After March 2021, Subversion use is only for legacy branches (`stable/11` and `stable/12`).
-====
-
-This section demonstrates how to install Subversion on a FreeBSD system and use it to create a local copy of a FreeBSD repository. Additional information on the use of Subversion is included.
-
-[[svn-svnlite]]
-=== Svnlite
-
-A lightweight version of Subversion is already installed on FreeBSD as `svnlite`.
-The port or package version of Subversion is only needed if the Python or Perl API is needed, or if a later version of Subversion is desired.
-
-The only difference from normal Subversion use is that the command name is `svnlite`.
-
-[[svn-install]]
-=== Installation
-
-If `svnlite` is unavailable or the full version of Subversion is needed, then it must be installed.
-
-Subversion can be installed from the Ports Collection:
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion
-# make install clean
-....
-
-Subversion can also be installed as a package:
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# pkg install subversion
-....
-
-[[svn-usage]]
-=== Running Subversion
-
-To fetch a clean copy of the sources into a local directory, use `svn`.
-The files in this directory are called a _local working copy_.
-
-[WARNING]
-====
-Move or delete an existing destination directory before using `checkout` for the first time.
-Checkout over an existing non-`svn` directory can cause conflicts between the existing files and those brought in from the repository.
-====
-
-Subversion uses URLs to designate a repository, taking the form of _protocol://hostname/path_.
-The first component of the path is the FreeBSD repository to access.
-There are three different repositories, `base` for the FreeBSD base system source code, `ports` for the Ports Collection, and `doc` for documentation.
-For example, the URL `https://svn.FreeBSD.org/base/head/` specifies the main branch of the src repository, using the `https` protocol.
-
-A checkout from a given repository is performed with a command like this:
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/repository/branch lwcdir
-....
-
-where:
-
-* _repository_ is one of the Project repositories: `base`, `ports`, or `doc`.
-* _branch_ depends on the repository used. `ports` and `doc` are mostly updated in the `head` branch, while `base` maintains the latest version of -CURRENT under `head` and the respective latest versions of the -STABLE branches under `stable/11` (11._x_) and `stable/12` (12._x_).
-* _lwcdir_ is the target directory where the contents of the specified branch should be placed. This is usually [.filename]#/usr/ports# for `ports`, [.filename]#/usr/src# for `base`, and [.filename]#/usr/doc# for `doc`.
-
-This example checks out the Source Tree from the FreeBSD repository using the HTTPS protocol, placing the local working copy in [.filename]#/usr/src#.
-If [.filename]#/usr/src# is already present but was not created by `svn`, remember to rename or delete it before the checkout.
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/base/head /usr/src
-....
-
-Because the initial checkout must download the full branch of the remote repository, it can take a while.
-Please be patient.
-
-After the initial checkout, the local working copy can be updated by running:
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# svn update lwcdir
-....
-
-To update [.filename]#/usr/src# created in the example above, use:
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# svn update /usr/src
-....
-
-The update is much quicker than a checkout, only transferring files that have changed.
-
-An alternate way of updating the local working copy after checkout is provided by the [.filename]#Makefile# in the [.filename]#/usr/ports#, [.filename]#/usr/src#, and [.filename]#/usr/doc# directories.
-Set `SVN_UPDATE` and use the `update` target.
-For example, to update [.filename]#/usr/src#:
-
-[source,shell]
-....
-# cd /usr/src
-# make update SVN_UPDATE=yes
-....
-
-[[svn-mirrors]]
-=== Subversion Mirror Sites
-
-The FreeBSD Subversion repository is:
-
-[.programlisting]
-....
-svn.FreeBSD.org
-....
-
-This is a publicly accessible mirror network that uses GeoDNS to select an appropriate back end server.
-To view the FreeBSD Subversion repositories through a browser, use https://svnweb.FreeBSD.org/[https://svnweb.FreeBSD.org/].
-
-HTTPS is the preferred protocol, but the [.filename]#security/ca_root_nss# package will need to be installed in order to automatically validate certificates.
-
-=== For More Information
-
-For other information about using Subversion, please see the "Subversion Book", titled http://svnbook.red-bean.com/[Version Control with Subversion], or the http://subversion.apache.org/docs/[Subversion Documentation].
