Subversion is an open-source version control system which is used to manage and track changes in programs, documents, and other files. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Subversion on Linux Mint.
Before installing Subversion, you should have the following:
Subversion can be installed on Linux Mint using the following steps:
Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard or by searching for it in the Applications menu.
Update the system:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Install Subversion:
sudo apt install subversion
Verify the installation by checking the version of Subversion:
svn --version
You should see the version details of Subversion installed on your system.
If you want to install the latest version of Subversion from the Apache repository, you can follow these steps instead of step 3:
sudo apt remove subversion
cd ~
sudo apt install apache2-utils
wget http://apache.mirrors.ionfish.org/subversion/subversion-1.14.0.tar.bz2
tar xjf subversion-1.14.0.tar.bz2
cd subversion-1.14.0
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
This will remove the current version of Subversion installed on your system and install the latest version from the Apache repository.

Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
