Checking Out Source
From Sourceforge
The Sourceforge Subversion repository is accessed over https. You can check out the entire repository (all projects, branches, tags, trunk and all; not recommended) with the following command:
$ svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cctools
For a particular project, we specify a specify module. For example, the following command can be used to check out the trunk of CcHost into a directory named cchost
:
$ svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cctools/cchost/trunk cchost
Note that a username and password is only required when performing a write operation to the repository. Subversion will prompt for a password as needed. If Subversion prompts for a password for the incorrect username, simply press Enter, and Subversion will prompt for the username.
