Section 9.4. Summary

9.4. Summary

In this section, you've learned many of the considerations that should go into laying out a new repository. You saw the basic branches/tags/TRunk layout scheme, and saw a number of variations on that layout, along with some of the layout considerations that will help you support the different potential uses for the branch and tag concepts. Additionally, you learned about converting an existing repository from another version control system, with some discussion on the tools available to perform those conversions. In the case where no conversion tools are available, you learned some techniques for handling a migration to Subversion that doesn't include migrating the old repository.
