Subversion is a popular open-source version control system that allows developers to manage and track changes to their codebase. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of installing Subversion on NixOS Latest using the official Subversion package.
Before you can install Subversion on NixOS Latest, you'll need:
Before we install Subversion, let's make sure our system is up to date. Run the following command to update your system:
sudo nix-channel --update && sudo nixos-rebuild switch
This will update your NixOS channels and rebuild the system with the latest configurations.
Next, we'll install Subversion using the official Subversion package. To do this, run the following command:
sudo nix-env -i subversion
This will install Subversion onto your system. You can verify that it installed correctly by running:
svn --version
This should display the version number of your Subversion installation.
Subversion comes with a default configuration file that we can use as a starting point. We'll copy this file to our home directory and edit it to fit our needs.
cp /etc/subversion/servers ~/.subversion/
nano ~/.subversion/servers
This will create a copy of the default configuration file in your home directory and open it in the Nano text editor. You can make any changes you'd like to the file, such as adding server information or modifying authentication settings.
In this tutorial, we covered the steps required to install Subversion on NixOS Latest. Now that it's installed, you can start using Subversion to manage your codebase. If you have any issues with the installation or configuration, refer to the Subversion official documentation or seek out additional help from the NixOS community.
