I am trying to install svn and am running into issues. The command I am running is sudo apt-get install svn. When I run this, I get the error "Unable to locate package svn". Why is this? How do I fix it?


Solution 1:

The package is called subversion (abbreviated svn). You've to install it by running:

sudo apt-get install subversion

This package contains the svnserve daemon too (not started by default). If you want to host a subversion server over HTTP, you must install apache2 and configure it accordingly.

Solution 2:

There is no package with the name of SVN . You may type this command on terminal.

sudo apt-get install subversion 

Then you can check it using svn command

svn co "type here your checkout URL without double quotes"

svn status 

svn commit ...........your file name
