CollabNet provides a Subversion (SVN) command-line client for version control operations. If you’re using Solaris, follow these steps to install the CollabNet SVN client.

---

1. Prerequisites

Before installation, ensure:
You have root or sudo privileges.
You are using Solaris 10 or later.
Your system has network access to download the package.

---

2. Download the CollabNet SVN Client

Visit the official CollabNet Subversion Downloads page:

• https://www.collab.net/downloads/subversion (CollabNet may have moved to another distribution, so check their latest repository.)

Select the Solaris version (SPARC or x86).

Use wget or curl to download:

wget https://downloads.collab.net/subversion/subversion-1.14.1-solaris10-x86.pkg.gz

---

3. Extract and Install the Package

Unzip the downloaded package:

gunzip subversion-1.14.1-solaris10-x86.pkg.gz

Install using pkgadd:

pkgadd -d subversion-1.14.1-solaris10-x86.pkg

Follow the installation prompts and confirm.

---

4. Verify the Installation

After installation, check if SVN is correctly installed:

svn --version

If installed correctly, you should see output like:

svn, version 1.14.1 (r1876290)
   compiled Dec  9 2020, 16:40:22

---

5. Set Environment Variables (Optional)

If SVN is not recognized, add it to your PATH:

Find the installation directory:

which svn

(Example output: /opt/CollabNet_Subversion/bin/svn)

Add to your PATH:

export PATH=/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/bin:$PATH

Make it permanent by adding it to ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile:

echo 'export PATH=/opt/CollabNet_Subversion/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc

---

6. Test SVN Client

Try running basic SVN commands:

svn help
svn list https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf

If successful, the second command should list Apache SVN repository contents.

---

7. Uninstall CollabNet SVN (If Needed)

To remove the package:

pkgrm CollabNet_Subversion

---

You have now successfully installed the CollabNet SVN command-line client on Solaris!
