Subversion on Mac OS X

Obviously, starting a software company you need to have a Source Code Management system. I chose subversion, because I know it, and it’s well regarded, and open-source.

Installing it on MacOS X turned out to be quite easy, once I’d found this Apple article (everything else I could find referred to older versions of MacOS X).

I used the latest versions of Apache (2.2.3), SVN (1.3.2) and PHP (5.1.6), and the walk-through still worked!

Everything worked fine, except:

  • I forgot to edit my WebSVN config.inc file. Schoolboy error.
  • I didn’t know that I had to use –enable-zlib when building PHP.
