Svn commit -m "Item4815: Corrected inability to open hatch Item4900: Closed hatch to shut out freezing water" Items must be open at the time of checkin (be in Open, Actioning or Waiting for Feedback states).Checkin comments must list all the Item numbers in Bugs web that document the reason for the change.The trunk has "trigger scripts" on it that enforce the following rules: Note that pre-4.2.0, the branch tags were changed to PatchNNxNN.

Shipping releases are currently in branches labelled TWikiReleaseNNxNN, i.e., the shipping code for release 4.1.x is in branch TWikiRelease04x01. There may be other developer branches as well, depending on what is going on. See HowToStartExtensionDevelopmentInSubversion if you work on extensions. See SubversionBasedTWikiInstall for practical advice on using a SVN checkout as a live install. if you don't want this, and only want to check out a subset of the bits you need, see Checking Out a Subset This will check out everything on the trunk - including every extension that has ever been checked in. If you leave out the "." at the end of the svn co command, it will create a directory named trunk for you. To check out the trunk including the core and all =extensions= mkdir twiki

The trunk is also used for TWiki extensions, which sometimes follow the same release cycle as the core code, but often don't. In the best case, the person doing the checkin will be able to almost immediately check the correct functioning of their checkin. This checkout area is kept up to date by cron job that runs every 10 minutes. The code checked into the trunk is used to drive a TWiki at, which is used to serve the bugs database. Developers can also create other branches in the twiki/scratch area if they want to try out new ideas. When a TWiki release is made, then release branches are created to track minor fixes and security fixes to that code, so that the trunk can move ahead without getting dragged down by old releases. So you have to take great care checking code into the trunk.ĭue to the nature of development code, major bugs or issues will occasionally be encountered in this code. It is a requirement that the code on the trunk always works, as we use it to run the bugs server at, and most developers rely on it always working for their development environments.

The trunk is used to check in all bug fixes and new code targeted at the next release. You don't have to use subversion to contribute to TWiki, but you'd have to have a pretty strong reason not to. The TWiki project has a subversion server at that we use to store and track changes to the TWiki source code, and the source code of many extensions. There is also a book about Subversion usage online at
Subversion org windows#
A Windows shell extension client is available at, and a cross-platform GUI at. It records all the source code, and tracks changes to that source code. If you wish to use the latest development versions of TWiki, you can use Subversion to keep up to date.
