We’ve been learning how to install and begin using Subversion in a designer’s workflow. The method I’ve been describing, however, is what you’d use mainly for a locally hosted Subversion server. This is great if you’re running an in house network or if you’re using Subversion for yourself. When it comes to serving clients though, you’ll probably need to consider hosting a decentralized Subversion system. This means you’re going to need a web host that supports Subversion.

I’m a Mac guy so if you use Windows, sorry but keep Googling for a different tutorial.

We’re talking about Subversion, the powerful Version tracking system for programmers and how we can repurpose it for design workflow. This was covered by Chris Nagele a while back at ThinkVitamin but it’s a topic so new to the design community it deserves repeating.

At some point you may have heard your programmer friends talking about a tool called Subversion. What is it? why do you need it and how can it impact your work as a designer?

It is used to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation. It’s goal is to be a mostly-compatible successor to the widely used Concurrent Versions System (CVS).
