NAME

SYNOPSIS
       svnversion [wc_path [trail_url]]

OVERVIEW
       Subversion  is  a version control system, which allows you to keep old versions of files and directo-ries directories
       ries (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why changes occurred, etc., like CVS, RCS or
       SCCS.  Subversion keeps a single copy of the master sources.  This copy is called the source ``repos-itory''; ``repository'';
       itory''; it contains all the information to permit extracting previous versions of those files at any
       time.
