💖 svnadmin(1) 💖

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for svnadmin, and it lives in the General Commands Manual section of your system. pull up a chair, we're gonna talk about Subversion repos. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

svnadmin — the Subversion repository administration tool. that's it, that's the whole name section, she's brief and she's iconic. 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

svnadmin command /path/to/repos [options] [args]

like, that's the shape of it: you give her a command, you point her at /path/to/repos, and then optionally you sprinkle on [options] and [args] to taste. ✨

🦋 OVERVIEW 🦋

okay so Subversion is a version control system, right? and what that means is you can keep old versions of files and directories around — usually source code, that's the classic — and keep a log of who, when, and why changes happened, etc. literally the same energy as CVS, RCS or SCCS. no cap. 💅

the way Subversion does it is it keeps a single copy of the master sources. and that copy? it's called the source "repository". and she is everything — the repository contains all the information to permit extracting previous versions of those files at any time. all of it. the whole history. main character energy, honestly. 😭💖
