Install CollabNet SVN Command Line Client in Red Hat

Link: http://www.collab.net/downloads/subversion/redhat.html

1. Platform and configuration

Product: CollabNet Subversion client

Platforms: Red Hat Enterprise Linux releases 4 and 5 (all versions, 32 bit)

Prerequisite: You must be a superuser (root) to install and uninstall

CollabNet Subversion.

2. Import CollabNet GPG key

CollabNet Subversion RPMs are signed using our GPG key. As a one-time task,

import the CollabNet GPG key using the command:

    sudo rpm –import /path/to/RPM-GPG-KEY-csvn.asc

The CollabNet GPG key is available for download at:

http://www.collab.net/nonav/downloads/subversion/gpg-key/RPM-GPG-KEY-csvn.asc

3. First installation

The command to install the CollabNet Subversion RPM, if a previous version

has not already been installed, is:

    sudo rpm -ivh /path/to/client.rpm

4. Updating an existing installation

If you have a previous version of the CollabNet Subversion client RPM installed,

update to the new version by running this command:

    sudo rpm -Uvh /path/to/client.rpm

If you also have a previous version of the CollabNet Subversion server RPM

installed, add the –force option to the command:

    sudo rpm -Uvh –force /path/to/client.rpm

5. Post-installation instructions

A. CollabNet Subversion installs into /opt/CollabNet_Subversion, which is

   probably not on the executable search path for your system. Add the directory

   /opt/CollabNet_Subversion/bin to your $PATH environment variable. In order to

   make this change affect all users of your system and persists across reboots,

   add the following line to /etc/profile:

    PATH=/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/bin:$PATH

B. CollabNet Subversion provides man pages and localizations for several

   languages. To take advantage of these features, update your MANPATH and/or

   LOCPATH environment variables to include the CollabNet Subversion directories.

   For example:

    export MANPATH=/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/share/man:$MANPATH

    export LOCPATH=/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/share/locale:$LOCPATH
