SVN

Abbreviation · Development

Definitions

  1. Apache Subversion — a centralized version control system where a single server holds the canonical repository and developers check out working copies, commit changes back to the server, and receive sequential revision numbers for each commit.

    In plain English: An older system for tracking code changes that stores everything on one central server.

    Example: "We're still on SVN, so every commit needs network access to the central repo — no offline branching like Git."
