Subversion 1.5 Released and Available

Subversion 1.5 was officially released on Thursday 19th June 2008 after several months of intensive testing (the first new feature release of Subversion in almost 2 years).

Subversion 1.5 is a greatly anticipated landmark in the open-source Subversion project originally initiated in 2000. Subversion has since been recognised by Forrester as the sole leader in SCM.

New features in Subversion 1.5 include:
• Merge Tracking
• Sparse checkouts
• Interactive Conflict Resolution

A detailed list of changes can be found in the release notes: http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.5_releasenotes.html.

Before upgrading to 1.5.0, please take note of the following:

Due to various improvements made to the working copy library, the working copy format has changed. Using Subversion 1.5.0 on any working copy created by previous versions of Subversion will SILENTLY upgrade your working copy, which means that previous versions of Subversion will no longer be able to read it.
