svn

• svn version: 1.6.6
• neon version: 0.29.0
• download source from http://subversion.tigris.org/
• download dependencies source also (make sure you have neon for http and https repository access)
• unarchive both the source and dependencies into the same directory
• rename the neon src folder to just 'neon' when you place it in the svn src directory
• use the following commands to build and install (unless you want Berkeley DB or Apache DAV Module - see below)

  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --mandir=/usr/local/man --infodir=/usr/local/info --disable-mod-activation --with-ssl

When compiling on Leopard, I received the following error:

sendrecv.c:965:2: error: #error APR has detected sendfile on your system, but nobody has written a
sendrecv.c:966:2: error: #error version of it for APR yet. To get past this, either write apr_sendfile
sendrecv.c:967:2: error: #error or change APR_HAS_SENDFILE in apr.h to 0.

After setting this value to 0 (apr/include/apr.h), the build process continued and completed with make. However, subversion 1.4.4 was installed by Apple in /usr/bin (not sure if it was with XCode or base install of Leopard).

If you don't have Berkeley DB installed or linked to APR-UTIL, you will see this:

You don't seem to have Berkeley DB version 4.1.25 or newer
installed and linked to APR-UTIL.  We have created Makefiles which
will build without the Berkeley DB back-end; your repositories will
use FSFS as the default back-end.  You can find the latest version of
Berkeley DB here:
