Someone help me with this SVN thing

[DeathByGuitar]

So some guy told me some bugs and stuff have been fixed in the SVN, but I know nothing about how to get it. He/she told me about Wget, and I proceeded to download Wget for Windows.....


Now what?

[fromhell]

You could get TortoiseSVN and install that, then check out the SVN folder then run that build .bat file to create new pk3s

[DeathByGuitar]

how do i run the .bat file? just got the tortise thing installed

So some guy

That would be me.

He/she told me about Wget

That would be a he.

Now what?

Well I havent used Wget in Windows but for Linux you go into the command line and type:

wget -r www.openarena.ws/svn

However this will download everything in the svn folder. If you want to download specific folder content just add the extra folder name.

For example if I just wanted to download all the maps I would type:

wget -r www.openarena.ws/svn/maps

I wouldn't recommend download the entire SVN(most of it you wont need) cause you'll put a large strain on the server.

[DeathByGuitar]

ok, i figured it out. i even accidentally figured out how to build them all into .pk3s.

@kit89 please do not recommend using wget to download from a svn server

check the svn command in your GNU/Linux distribution... it works far better. Check http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/index.html if you need documentation.
