However you >should be getting a Pi-os centered answer in the forum. No reasonable reply on the RPi forum, but I believe thios should be an issue on a subversion centered forum/maillist. Question: What happens if one tries to install svn on a server type Linux distro? Ubuntu, Pi-OS, Debian etc? Will the svn tool then be unable to work against any server requiring user login? In such a situation there is no GUI to pop the login into... It is REALLY terribly irritating to have to launch a VNC session onto the server and log into the GUI just for the purpose of entering a subversion login on a command running in an SSH terminal obn that server!!!!! -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden
