RE: V7R1 Subversion 1.4

I like the safer approach of installing a supported version on Windows or Linux.

How important is your information :-) ?

Wowzers, that's an extensive list of things to do just to get subversion up and running. Good job!

We gave up on that endeavor thinking it was impossible and just spent the 30 minutes to download and install it on an x86 box. I love install wizards that work! ;-)

--Chris,

--our company has ported latest Subversion client 1.7.8 to v5r4, v6r1 and v7r1. For v7r1 we have both versions - with and without large files support, see http://btc.info/en/products/233/

--You've asked about Subversion server on IBM i, so I'm not proposing a solution for your original question, but I can agree with Richard Schoen
- Subversion server on Windows/Linux platform has much better performance.

I have come across the BTC site a few times. However, it appears you are selling the Subversion software and all the other open source products that you ported to the iSeries.

We are only using subversion to contain our PHP code and we plan on upgrading our Aldon product from LMi to LMe, so my manager wasn't going to approve any purchases.

I ended up getting subversion 1.7.8 running in the PASE AIX environment.
