Explains to users and developers how to use subversion to check out BurstCMS code.
See the syntax-highlighted source code of BurstCMS in your browser See the changes that have been made to BurstCMS. IntroductionSo, you want to see the amazing brilliance behind this content management system. You click over to the Downloads tab to download a compressed archive of the latest version of BurstCMS. Your eyes cloud over slightly with confusion as you realize that there are no pre-prepared packages for you in the Downloads section. Well, what do you do now? If I were you, I'd continue reading this wiki page to find out how to check out the source code for BurstCMS, and even this wiki page! Checking out from the command lineFirst, assure that you have a Subversion client (often referred to as SVN) installed. This document is not going to go into the details of installing a Subversion client, so I suggest that you use Google or a similar search engine. Checking out source codeIf you are sure that you have installed a Subversion client, run the following command in the terminal: svn co http://burstcms.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ <directory> Replace <directory> with the directory that you want to put the BurstCMS source code in. Checking out wiki pagesThe terminal command is very simple. Just replace /trunk/ from the above terminal command with /wiki/. The command should look something like: svn checkout http://burstcms.googlecode.com/svn/wiki/ <directory> Please note that you will get the wiki source code, which is just plaintext files that will look like: I like writing the word "bold" in *bold*. I like writing the word "italics" in _italics_! and will not look like: I like writing the word "bold" in bold. I like writing the word "italics" in italics! Using a SVN GUIIf terminal commands are not your thing, then may I suggest that you use a SVN GUI? Subversion's official website has a a list of SVN GUIs. |
