I have put work on all my map edits on hold until the conversion. I have no
clue how to use SVN to download updates and commit updates. Do we have a
simple FAQ on how to do this using ssh/id/password? (I hate using keys) I
specifically need command line usage information for SVN as relates to
sourceforge.net. IOW what is the equivalent of:

cvs -z3 -d:ext:eracc at crossfire.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/crossfire co maps-bigworld

... and ...

cvs -d:ext:eracc at crossfire.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/crossfire commit

If I have developer download and commit access in CVS will that automagically
be included in SVN?

TIA,
Gene Alexander
