Subversion
From FreeBSDwiki
Here is how to configure and run programs that use subversion, mainly to update FreeBSD source files.

svnup
Unfortunately, subversion control doesn't come with the base system, but there is a convenient, dependency-less port called net/svnup .
# pkg install svnup
or
# /usr/ports/net/svnup/make install clean
# man svnup
svnup.conf
The configuration file for svnup.conf is at /usr/local/etc/svnup.conf, and these set options can be overrode on the command line. Here is an example of the configuration file:
# $FreeBSD$ # # Default configuration options for svnup.conf. # [defaults] work_directory=/var/tmp/svnup #host=svn.freebsd.org #host=svn0.us-west.freebsd.org #host=svn0.us-east.freebsd.org #host=svn0.eu.freebsd.org protocol=https verbosity=1 trim_tree=0 extra_files=0 #repository_base= # [release] branch=base/releng/10.1 target=/usr/src # [ports] branch=ports/head target=/usr/ports
This looks simple enough, remove the # [comment out] sign next to the server you wish to use, and adjust other options. For more information type:
# man svnup.conf
Updating
To update via svnup, use the svnup command with the tag in parenthesis described in the conf file:
# svnup release
or
# svnup ports
