svn co -r10000 http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk asterisk-r1000 svn co -r'{2008-01-18}' http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk asterisk-20080118 (use 'svn update' with the same -r switch in an existing copy, of course) http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.tour.revs.specifiers.html#svn.tour.revs.dates > If we had a specific problem we were trying to > fix, I would very likely grab the latest tarball and try it out. The latest nightly tarball is not the latest SVN. Some problems may have been fixed since. svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk asterisk-latest Also, if your timezone is of the US, the nightly tarball may come in the middle of your work day.
