Subversion (SVN)

• Subversion (SVN) is a tool which allows development teams to safely coordinate and track source code changes. It helps large project development by merging code changes from various developers. Without SVN it is easily possible to overwrite other people's changes and one would be unable to restore previous versions of code if necessary.
