  • Where to find the Subversion Binaries (svn.exe)?

    8 Comments

    I was setting up CruiseControl.NET for the Vaasnet automated build system and I needed the Subversion binaries.  This is my first project that I had used Subversion for source control and up until now I had just been using TortoiseSVN for interacting with the source control repository. 

    CruiseControl.NET needs the Subversion binaries since this is how it communicates with your Subversion repository (through svn.exe).  Finding just the binaries ended up being a particularly difficult task.  Eventually I figured it out… posting here for anyone else that also runs into this issue:

    1. Start here: Tigris.org – Getting Subversion
    2. Head down to the Windows section and click on the Tigris.org link:
      • image
    3. Look for the latest version MSI installer (at the time this post was written v. 1.6.6)
      • image
      • Name: Setup-Subversion-1.6.6.msi
    4. Run this installation app and you will get svn.exe installed on your machine.
      • On Windows Server 2008 64-bit the default install path will be:
        • C:\Program Files (x86)\Subversion\bin\svn.exe

    Hopefully this will help someone else in the future.

    See http://nightlybuilds.tortoisesvn.net/  for instructions on the correct folder for the stable release.  The "latest" folder is the nightly build.
