In general our tools and documentation for building svn on Windows are quite outdated and could really use some love. For instance, INSTALL still contains a lot of old irrelevant information, it should primarily focus on current tools that people install these days (e.g. focusing on VS 2012, 2013 and 2015). With my last build-setup attempt, I kept a short log of what I did (based on things from build-svn-deps-win.pl, and further trial and error). Perhaps this is useful: [[[ download awk95.exe and rename it to awk.exe and put somewhere in PATH (as documented in INSTALL) download and install: - CMake - SCons - Python - Perl Install Visual Studio (I used 2013).

Hi Johan, thanks for the hint. That indeed seemed to have been the problem. Passes through the python script now when using Python 2.7.10.

While I agree in principle, I need to build httpd and subversion to work with Trac (trac.edgewall.org) which is currently limited to python 3.0 (I use 2.7 also). For this to work properly my understanding is that httpd and python (and svn) all need to use the same compiler libraries and Python 2.7 is built using Visual C++ 2008... So the 2008 stuff is not completely irrelevant (I got it compiling and making the python bindings). I have some notes but they are not really fit for publication and are for VC2008 but I can share them if you think they would be useful. To build AnkhSVN for Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 I continue to build Subversion using VS 2008 at least every week, so I would consider VS 2005 and 2008 as fully supported for Subversion. But I don't think anybody working on Subversion really uses VS 6.0 (released +- 18 years ago) or 2002 and 2003, so I don't consider our support for these versions as really supported. I'm guessing that the VS 6.0 support might still work with a minor tweak, while I think the 2002/2003 support would need at least some patches to make it work again. If nobody is going to comment on this after the release of 1.9.0, I think we will drop support for these 12+ year old versions with 1.10+. With VS 2013 Community Edition now free to use for everybody working on open source projects, there is no good reason to continue to support these very old versions, that target platforms that are no longer supported anyway. One interesting point for some usecases is that the VS 2010 tooling allows building with the VS2008 compiler by passing a few specific flags to msbuild. This is how the first version of XP compatibility in VS2012+ was implemented. (And this is also how VC 2010+'s C++/CLI can target .Net 2.0-3.5) Bert

We don't want to repeat information that's already available elsewhere. A lot of effort was put into creating a well-written book all about Subversion; I suggest you start by reading its What is Subversion? section: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.intro.whatis.html As it says there in the first sentence, Subversion is free, so you can download it and try it out and see if it meets your needs.
