-====== Svn == 
-Svn is a revision control system, just like rcs, cvs and git are. \\ 
-The Crossfire repository is maintained by svn . 
- 
-Pages telling much about the usage of svn on this wiki: 
-  * [[:​downloading|Downloading Crossfire]] 
-  * [[:​faq#​2.4.2 Via SVN|FAQ page SVN topic]] 
-  * [[:​the_source|Source Download Guide]] 
-  * [[:​sourceforge:​SourceForge Migration]]

-===== Svn Versions == 
- 
-Svn has changed a little bit over the time. \\ 
-Since year 2018 SourceForge became more restricted for accessing its pages and repositories,​ \\ 
-requiring OpenSSL version 1.x and newer. 
- 
-It is still possible though to access the SVN repos using the svn's native protocol **svn:​%%//​%%** , 
-if the svn --version is newer than 1.3.2 and probably even newer. 
- 
-Svn versions 1.3.2 and 1.4.6 can access **https** on SF using OpenSSL-1.x with this hack for the neon library 0.25.5 file ne_openssl.c and recompiling : 
-<code c> 
-    if (ctx->​sess) { 
-        SSL_SESSION *newsess = SSL_get0_session(ssl);​ 
-        /* Replace the session if it has changed. */ 
-      /*  if (newsess != ctx->​sess || SSL_SESSION_cmp(ctx->​sess,​ newsess)) { */ 
-          if (newsess != ctx->​sess) { 
-            SSL_SESSION_free(ctx->​sess);​ 
-            ctx->​sess = SSL_get1_session(ssl);​ /* bumping the refcount */ 
-        } 
-    } 
-</​code>​ 
-I have not found a similar function in newer OpenSSL headers, that could replace the SSL_SESSION_cmp function. \\ 
-See the configure script of the NEON library for NEON_ALLOWED_LIST,​ NEON_LATEST_WORKING_VER,​ NEON_RECOMMENDED_VER . 
- 
- 
-===== Svn Update == 
-The ''​svn update''​ and ''​svn cleanup''​ commands on a repository created by a former svn version make it impossible to be used by the former svn version again; \\ 
-at least between versions 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6; and completely impossible between 1.6 and 1.7+ . 
- 
-See http://​subversion.apache.org/​faq.html#​working-copy-format-change . \\ 
-There is a PYTHON downgrade script available : \\ 
-https://​svn.apache.org/​repos/​asf/​subversion/​trunk/​tools/​client-side/​change-svn-wc-format.py \\ 
-which tells us  
->### The entries file parser in subversion/​tests/​cmdline/​svntest/​entry.py 
->### handles the XML-based WC entries file format used by Subversion 
->### 1.3 and lower. ​ It could be rolled into this script. 
-> 
->>​LATEST_FORMATS = { "​1.4"​ : 8, 
->> ​                  "​1.5"​ : 9, 
->> ​                  "​1.6"​ : 10, 
->> ​                  # Do NOT add format 11 here.  See comment in must_retain_fields 
->> ​                  # for why. 
->> ​                } 
-># Maps format numbers to indices of fields within an entry'​s record that must 
-># be retained when downgrading to that format. 
->> ​ must_retain_fields = { 
->> ​     # Not in 1.4: changelist, keep-local, depth, tree-conflicts,​ file-externals 
->> ​     8  : (30, 31, 33, 34, 35), 
->> ​     # Not in 1.5: tree-conflicts,​ file-externals 
->> ​     9  : (34, 35), 
->> ​     10 : (), 
->> ​     # Downgrading from format 11 (1.7-dev) to format 10 is not possible, 
->> ​     # because 11 does not use has-props and cachable-props (but 10 does). 
->> ​     # Naively downgrading in that situation causes properties to disappear 
->> ​     # from the wc. 
->> ​     # 
->> ​     # Downgrading from the 1.7 SQLite-based format to format 10 is not 
->> ​     # implemented. 
->> ​     } 
- 
-Thia is therefore noteworthy, since trying out some newer Linux Distro and running some "​innocent"​ svn command in the huge 4GB local crossfire code copy and then reverting to the older Linux OS again, can make your local svn repository unusable.
