Subversion 1.0 Released
Phil John writes "Subversion 1.0 has finally been released. The people who maintain CVS have given us a viable replacement for our de-facto (and aged) versioning system. If you're new to Subversion its feature list looks like fixes for everything that is wrong in CVS, renaming, directory structure and metadata version tracking, file deletion, proper management of binary files and it's pretty portable to boot." According to the download page, binaries may take a few days to appear.

What's so good about a version control system that takes days for binaries to appear? That's a pretty big bug to work out. (fp)
This story seems to have jumped the gun a few hours; the 1.0 tarballs don't seem to be available yet.
However, you can download the latest Subversion sources from its Bitkeeper repository... no, wait...
I don't think I'm going to try this version. I think I'll wait until they get to Superversion 1.0. Or maybe Superversion Platinum/Pro++ 1.0.
Find free books.
Thank you, Mr. Cut-and-Paste (7th comment down).
It's hard to be religious when certain people are never incinerated by bolts of lightning.
Wow, there is a first for everything. The one statement I would have bet large sums of money that I would never hear is that ClearCase's filesystem integration is really nice.

... try having a sysadmin that prefers debian and see how long you have to wait. Sigh. I do like subversion lots though! :)
Hardly an unbiased evaluation.
You're right - ask for your money back.
Do not mod up people who point out cut-and-paste trolls logged in.
Many of these are folks who post plagarized articles and then point it out with another account to gain karma.

Oh, wheels-within-wheel-within -- oh just take the blue pill!
Opinions on the Twiddler2 hand-held keyboard?
You lost me at "[...] filesystem [...] written in Perl"...
You need to install an RTFM interface.
Anyone know if there is a way to use subversion for automatic canonization of code style?
Yeah, host a python repository with it.
Like what I said? You might like my music
<tongue firmly in cheek>Instead of paying the $1000 for VS, buy an Itanium server. The VS compiler is free for IA64 (though it doesn't come with the IDE). It's included in the (free) MSDN download</tongue>
I think we need a new moderation category.
