MorphOS: Subversion 1.5.2
Christian Rosentreter has publidhed an update of the MorphOS port of the version management program SVN. The changes are included in the Release Notes on the SVN-homepage.
Please note that a subversion client of version 1.5 will update all projects which are older than version 1.5.x. Thus older client cannot read these projects any longer. This affects only working copies but not repositories.
Furthermore the author points out that he could not test each single function. So you will use the application at your own risk.
