Appache HTTP Server. The server that is used in conjunction with the Subversion server to run the HTTP and HTTPS protocols. The Apache HTTP Server is free and open source. More information, including installation instructions, is available at the Apache HTTP Server Project Homepage.
Authentication Scheme. Controls how users are authenticated with your Subversion server. Can be as simple as a flat file or can support many different authentication servers.
Commit. The process of taking your local changes and sending them to the Subversion server. Also called “checking in.”
Import. You import a project from version control to get a project that has already been created and put it on your local machine. After the initial import, you can use the update process to download subsequent changes.
Repository. The place where the Subversion server holds your files. Repositories can support many projects, and many repositories can be supported on the same computer.
Revision. A number identifying a specific set of changes to files in your project and across the Subversion repository. Revisions are visible in the version control history and properties dialog boxes.
Server Realm. A string that identifies the authentication scheme to be used for that server. Servers with the same realms can use the same set of credentials to support a variation of single sign-on.
Update. Getting the latest changes from the server and applying them to the work area on your local machine.
