More Information about QSvn you will find at http://anrichter.github.io/qsvn/

End of Lifetime

The development of QSvn was stopped at the end of 2010. But feel free to clone the repository and go on working on the next release of QSvn.

Checkout the Sources

QSvn uses the svnqt library to access Subversion repositories. So the checkout of the QSvn sources alone is not enough. You have to checkout svnqt sources also.

The git way

git clone https://github.com/anrichter/qsvn
cd qsvn
git submodule init
git submodule update

The Subversion way

svn checkout https://github.com/anrichter/qsvn/trunk qsvn
cd qsvn/src
svn checkout https://github.com/MIRAvzw/svnqt/trunk@340 svnqt

Compile & Install under UNIX

For compilation under UNIX you need the following software packages:

• Qt4
• cmake 2.4.0 or greater
• subversion libraries and headers

Debian

Prepare system for build with debugger and cmake:

sudo apt-get install build-essential gdb cmake

Install Qt4

sudo apt-get install libqt4-core libqt4-dbg libqt4-dev libqt4-gui \
libqt4-qt3support libqt4-sql qt4-designer qt4-dev-tools qt4-doc \
qt4-qtconfig

Install Subversion and Libraries

sudo apt-get install subversion libsvn-dev libapr1 libapr1-dbg \
libapr1-dev libaprutil1 libaprutil1-dbg libaprutil1-dev

It is recommended to use ccache for increase continuous builds

sudo apt-get install ccache
add "export PATH="/usr/lib/ccache:$PATH" to ~/.bashrc

If you like to develop under KDE i recommended to

sudo apt-get install kdevelop kde-devel-extras

Compile for Release

mkdir build
cd build
../scripts/release.sh

When you would install qsvn call

sudo make install

Compile for Developing

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ../src
make

If you prefer to use KDevelop as an IDE type:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "KDevelop3" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ../src

Compile & Install under Windows

For compilation under Windows you need the following software packages:

• Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 I recommended the free available Express Edition from http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/ After installation of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 you can open a Visual Studio 2008 Command prompt to compile source code with the Visual C++ Compiler.
• Subversion & Development Libraries Download the latest Subversion Release and the corresponding Development Libraries. Install Subversion in your Program Folder. Unpack the development libraries into the Subversion installation folder. http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=91 In addition to this you need the libintl development libraries and headers http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=2627 and the Berkley DB libraries and headers http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=688
• CMake 2.4.4 or greater http://www.cmake.org
• Qt4 compiled for use with MSVC++ Download the latest Qt4 Source Package for Windows. http://www.trolltech.com After the Qt is compiled you must add the Qt-bin-directory to your PATH variable. CMake is looking for Qt libraries in PATH-directories also.
• InnoSetup with QuickStart Pack (http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php) In order to build the installation you need to install Install InnoSetup and the Preprocessor. After you had install InnoSetup, add it to your PATH.

Compile for Release

mkdir release
cd release
c:\path\to\qsvn\source\scripts\release.cmd -D SUBVERSION_INSTALL_PATH=c:\path\to\svn

Compile for Development

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" ..\src
nmake

If you prefer the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition as your IDE type in:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" ..\src

Build Installation

For build the QSvn Installer for Windows follow the instruction found in src\setup\README
