UsingSVN

Introduction

WoWInterface uses a protocol known as Subversion (SVN) to maintain version control within projects. All modifications must use this protocol. There are many programs available to provide this functionality. Some are command line and others are GUI. The two presented below are TortoiseSVN for Windows which is a command line version that integrates with Windows Explorer. The second is svnX for Mac which is a full GUI version.
