How to find my Subversion server version number?
To find the version of the subversion REPOSITORY you can:
- Look to the repository on the web and on the bottom of the page it will say something like:
"Powered by Subversion version 1.5.2 (r32768)." - From the command line: <insert curl, grep oneliner here>
If not displayed, view source of the page
<svn version="1.6.13 (r1002816)" href="http://subversion.tigris.org/">
Now for the subversion CLIENT:
svn --version
will suffice
Let's merge these responses:
For REPOSITORY / SERVER (the original question):
If able to access the Subversion server:
-
From an earlier answer by Manuel, run the following on the SVN server:
svnadmin --version
If HTTP/HTTPS access:
See the "powered by Subversion" line when accessing the server via a browser.
Access the repository via browser and then look for the version string embedded in the HTML source. From earlier answers by elviejo and jaredjacobs. Similarly, from ??, use your browser's developer tools (usually Ctrl + Shift + I) to read the full response. This is also the easiest (non-automated) way to deal with certificates and authorization - your browser does it for you.
-
Check the response tags (these are not shown in the HTML source), from an earlier answer by Christopher
wget -S --spider 'http://svn.server.net/svn/repository' 2>&1 | sed -n '/SVN/s/.*\(SVN[0-9\/\.]*\).*/\1/p'
If svn:// or ssh+svn access
-
From an earlier answer by Milen
svnserve --version (run on svn server)
-
From an earlier answer by Glenn
ssh user@host svnserve --version
If GoogleCode SVN servers
Check out the current version in a FAQ:
http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/SubversionFAQ#What_version_of_Subversion_do_you_use?
If another custom SVN servers
TBD
Please edit to finish this answer
For CLIENT (not the original question):
svn --version
