Basic Actions
A few important facts and terminology to help clarify the basic actions:
* One responsibility of a code repository is to keep track of all of the modifications done to a project by its team members.
*:In other words, in a project that is handled tracked by a code repository (version-controlled or in short versioned), you can track focus on any changes during the project's development life; such as, who modified/added/deleted what and when. You can undo work or rollback the work to any stage of the development and much more.
* SVN is a client/server repository;
*: The code Code is kept on a server and those members who have access can copy the whole or parts of the project to their local machines, work on the whole or parts and then apply their changes back to the server. Because of thisthe code is kept on a server, one member may be unaware of the changes made by another member, unless the other has applied the changes to the serverand the member has update their local copy.
* Merging the modifications of different members into the repository is another responsibility.
* A '''Version-controlled or versioned''' file is a file that is handled and tracked by a repository
