WGOMHappy Birthday–November 21
Johannes KastlIf you are interested in the proper usage and concepts of #subversion (or #svn) I can highly recommend this book. Pragmatic Version Control using Subversion, by Mike Mason.
I was digging into version control history during the holidays, as I started using #jj aka #jujutsuvcs in addition to git and wanted to know more about the concepts it is designed with. I had the luck of being able to start my version control life with git, so I never worked with Subversion a lot (some people might say fortunately). But as many people seem to hold it in high regard, I wanted to understand why.
This books takes you through all you need to know to use it. As an "normal being" just using it. Handling normal things, releases, branches. But also from an administration side, handling and organizing repositories. Backing them up. Splitting and uniting them.
And all of that written in a very enjoyable way.
