Checking Out a Working Copy

First you need to check out a working copy of the trunk as below. You can replace the final trunk by any other name you like.

svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/skim-app/code/trunk trunk

Developers for the project can use the svn+ssh protocol with your username and password to get a working copy with read/write access.

svn checkout svn+ssh://USERNAME@svn.code.sf.net/p/skim-app/code/trunk trunk

Layout of the Repository

The Skim Subversion repository currently has the following layout.

skim-app/
  trunk/
  branches/
    <branch_name>/
    ...
  tags/
    <tag_name>/
    ...
  transitions/
  SkimNotesAgent/

Main development takes place in the trunk directory. The branches are used for temporary feature development and for long term bugfixes of stable versions. The tags should be used for static snapshots, such as release versions. They should never be modified after creation. The last two directories contain inactive deprecated projects.

SkimNotes

The source for the SkimNotes project, building the SkimNotes framework and the skimnotes command line tool, can be checked out as follows.

svn checkout svn://skim-app.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/skim-app/trunk/SkimNotes SkimNotes

Transitions

The source for the transitions project, building the image unit for transition filters that can be used for presentation page transitions, can be checked out as follows.

svn checkout svn://skim-app.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/skim-app/trunk/SkimTransitions SkimTransitions
