Nexacro Platform supports the connectivity with revision control software. Features may differ depending on programs.

Subversion (SVN)

Settings for Subversion

If you install a Subversion client, you can select SVN by accessing [Tools > Options > Source Control].

The Subversion client that is supported by Nexacro Studio is "Subversion for Windows." If you use different clients of Subversion, your Nexacro Studio will not activate the SVN option. If you want to learn more about Subversion for Windows, click the below URL.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32svn/

Nexacro Studio supports the following options for the use of Subversion.

Option	Description
Check SVN status when opened project	Check file statuses automatically when opening a project.
Update file(s) when opening the project	Load files of latest versions automatically when opening a project.
Commit file(s) when closing the project	Commit checked-out files automatically when closing a project.

You must install a Subversion client to make the SVN option activated. Nexacro Studio identifies the installation of a Subversion client by checking the related entries in Windows Registry.

If the version of Subversion is earlier than 1.6.0, either the SVN option does not appear in Nexacro Studio or some features do not work.

This documentation does not provide a guide for the installation of a Subversion client. You can get related information by following the below link.
