Apache Subversion Releases
The Apache Subversion project publishes releases with a relatively high
degree of regularity. At any given time, we're working towards our
next major release while continuing to fix bugs in previous releases.
Subversion's release compatibility promises make adoption of our
bugfix releases easy — you'll find very few, if any, surprises
in those kinds of releases in terms of features and functionality. As
such, the release notes issued for a given major release
(an X.Y.0 release) remain applicable for patch releases to
that release line (an X.Y.Z release). You can find links
to these release notes below.
Over time and as new major releases come out, we drop official
support for older release lines. You'll also find below the project's
official support status for the various release lines available.
