In this section, we will learn how to install and use the SVN Eclipse plugin. We will create a small project and see how to check in a project to SVN from within Eclipse. We will also see how to sync with the existing SVN repository.
You will need access to an SVN repository to follow the steps in this chapter. If you do not have access to an SVN repository, you can choose from some of the free SVN offerings online. This book does not promote or suggest using any particular online SVN hosting, but for the purpose of explaining SVN Eclipse plugin features, the author has used https://riouxsvn.com. However, the plugin would work the same way with any SVN server.
