Introduction to TortoiseSVN

"TortoiseSVN is an Apache™ Subversion (SVN)® client, implemented as a Windows shell extension." (tortoisesvn.net) For HANtune and HANcoder Tortoise SVN client is used to commit and update the working copy. Also the test automation server uses this client in order to retreive the source code from the HANtune repository.


Installation

Simply download the installer and follow the instructions.

Important! By default the command line tools aren't selected in the installer. In order to automate retreiving the source code from the repository the command line tool is needed.


Configuration

Each SVN repository requires a login user name and password. When making the first checkout TortoiseSVN will ask for it once, after which it will save the user credentials and will not ask for it again.
