Using Subversion

BOINC uses Suversion (aka "SVN") for source code version control. The main SVN repository is at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/svn/, which you can explore with a web browser. The latest development version of the code is in the trunk, while the most stable server code is in branches/server_stable.

You need an SVN client to check code out in bulk from the repository. On Linux the command line command is simply svn. On Windows ​TortoiseSVN provides a useful graphical interface. See ​http://subversion.tigris.org/ for detailed information about Subversion and information about other SVN clients.
