The Serf and Neon libraries both allow the Subversion client
102
to send HTTP requests. This is necessary if you want your
103
client to access a repository served by the Apache HTTP
104
server. There is an alternate 'svnserve' server as well,
105
though, and clients automatically know how to speak the
106
svnserve protocol. Thus it's not strictly necessary for your
107
client to be able to speak HTTP... though we still recommend
108
that your client be built to speak both HTTP and svnserve
109
protocols. Your client can be compiled against either
110
libserf or libneon (or both), as they offer competing

OpenSSL enables your client to access SSL-encrypted https://
116
URLs (using libserf or libneon) in addition to unencrypted
117
http:// URLs. To use SSL with Subversion's WebDAV server,
118
Apache needs to be compiled with OpenSSL as well.

171
team has created a script that downloads the minimal prerequisite
178
172
libraries (Apache Portable Runtime, Sqlite, and Zlib). The script,
179
173
'get-deps.sh', is available in the same directory as this file.
180
When run, it will place 'apr', 'apr-util', 'serf', 'neon',
181
'zlib', and 'sqlite-amalgamation' directories directly into your
182
unpacked Subversion distribution, where they will be automatically
183
configured and built by Subversion's build process.
174
When run, it will place 'apr', 'apr-util', 'serf', 'zlib', and
175
'sqlite-amalgamation' directories directly into your unpacked Subversion
176
distribution. With the exception of sqlite-amalgamation, they will
177
still need to be configured, built and installed explicitly, and
178
Subversion's own configure script may need to be told where to find
179
them, if they were not installed in standard system locations.
185
181
Note: there are optional dependencies (such as openssl, swig, and httpd)
186
which get-deps.sh does not download and Subversion does not attempt to
182
which get-deps.sh does not download.
189
184
Note: Because previous builds of Subversion may have installed older
190
185
versions of these libraries, you may want to run some of the cleanup
249
244
be able to find them.
251
246
There are a couple of options to "./configure" that tell it where
252
to look for the APR and APR-util libraries. By default, it will first
253
look for bundled versions of APR and APR-util, and then try to locate
254
already installed versions of the libraries using the apr-config and
255
apu-config scripts. These scripts provide all the relevant information

for the APR and APR-util installations.

249
These scripts provide all the relevant information for the APR and
250
APR-util installations.
258
252
If you want to specify the location of the APR library, you can use
259
253
the "--with-apr=" option of "./configure". It should be able to find
270
264
$ ./configure --with-apr=/usr/local/apache2 \
271
265
--with-apr-util=/usr/local/apache2 ...
273
If you want Subversion to build the APR libraries from source
274
code as part of the Subversion build process, you can put their
275
source code into the "./apr" and "./apr-util" directories.
277
267
Be sure to use a native Windows SVN client (as opposed to
278
268
Cygwin's version) so that the .dsp files get carriage-returns at
279
269
the ends of their lines. Otherwise Visual Studio will complain
284
274
library's directory, to regenerate the configure scripts and
285
275
other files required for compiling the libraries:
287
$ cd apr; ./buildconf; cd ..
289
$ cd apr-util; ./buildconf; cd ..
277
$ cd apr; ./buildconf; ./configure ...; make; make install; cd ..

5. Serf library 1.2.1 or newer (OPTIONAL)
318
311
If you want your client to be able to speak to an Apache
319
312
server (via a http:// or https:// URL), you must link against
320
at least one of these libraries. Though optional, we strongly
323
(If you link against both, Subversion will use ra_neon by
324
default. Add "http-library = serf" to the [global] section of
325
your ~/.subversion/servers file to use ra_serf instead.)
327
a. Serf library 0.7.1 or newer (http://code.google.com/p/serf/)
329
In order to use ra_serf, you must install serf, and run
330
Subversion's ./configure with the argument --with-serf. If
331
serf is installed in a non-standard place, you should use
313
serf. Though optional, we strongly recommend this.
315
In order to use ra_serf, you must install serf, and run Subversion's
316
./configure with the argument --with-serf. If serf is installed in a
317
non-standard place, you should use
333
319
--with-serf=/path/to/serf/install
337
For more information on serf and Subversion's ra_serf, see
338
the file subversion/libsvn_ra_serf/README.
340
b. Neon library 0.25 through 0.29 (http://www.webdav.org/neon/)
342
In order to use ra_neon, you must install neon, and run
343
Subversion's ./configure with the argument --with-neon.
344
Subversion's configuration mechanism should then detect the
345
installed Neon. If it does not, you may need to set the
346
LDFLAGS environment variable when you run "./configure", or
347
specify Neon's location by passing the "--with-neon="
348
option to "./configure". Look for the "neon-config" script
349
in a "bin/" subdirectory of the target of "--with-neon".
350
For example, if you pass "--with-neon=/usr/local/myneon/",
351
then there should be a file
352
"/usr/local/myneon/bin/neon-config".
323
Serf can be obtained via your system's package distribution
324
system or directly from http://code.google.com/p/serf/.

On Unix systems, to build Serf with OpenSSL, you need OpenSSL

341
installed on your system, and you must add "--with-ssl" as a

"./configure" parameter. If your OpenSSL installation is hard
376
for Neon to find, you may need to use "--with-libs=/path/to/lib"

in addition. In particular, on Red Hat (but not Fedora Core) it

is necessary to specify "--with-libs=/usr/kerberos" for OpenSSL

using "--with-libs". Consult the Neon documentation for more

It probably means that the dynamic loader/linker can't find all
734

of the libsvn_* libraries.
736
Note that if you commonly build with the -jN option to make and
737
have used the get-deps.sh script to fetch dependencies, the make
738
step above may fail, because we don't ensure that third party
739
libraries in our source tree will finish building before
740
subversion itself. If you want to use -jN, use the following
