How can I get both Subversion (SVN) and CVS on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)?

Q: How can I get both Subversion (SVN) and CVS on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)?

A: Mac OS X v10.5 (Leopard) includes both CVS and Subversion (SVN). Subversion is installed by default with the User DVD install, while CVS is installed as part of the Xcode Developer Tools installation.

To get CVS, install Xcode Developer Tools.

This is a change from previous versions of Mac OS X, where CVS was installed by default with the User DVD, and you needed a third-party installer for Subversion.
