-This directory contains a simple plugin that adds
-Subversion branch support to Bazaar (http://www.bazaar-vcs.org/)
+Subvertpy
+=========
-You will need a modified version of bzr that has support for
-foreign branches (branch at http://samba.org/~jelmer/bzr/foreignbranch)
+Homepage: http://samba.org/~jelmer/subvertpy/
-Simply place this directory in ~/.bazaar/plugins and you should be able
-to check out branches from Subversion using bzr.
+Python bindings for the Subversion version control system that are aimed to be
+complete, fast and feel native to Python programmers.
+
+Bindings are provided for the working copy, client, delta, remote access and
+repository APIs. A hookable server side implementation of the custom Subversion
+protocol (svn_ra) is also provided.
+
+Differences with similar packages
+---------------------------------
+subvertpy covers more of the APIs than python-svn. It provides a more
+"Pythonic" API than python-subversion, which wraps the Subversion C API pretty
+much directly. Neither provide a hookable server-side.
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+Subvertpy depends on Python 2.4 or later, and Subversion 1.4 or later. It should
+work on Windows as well as most POSIX-based platforms (including Linux, BSDs
+and Mac OS X).
+
+A port to Python 3 is planned but has not happened yet. Patches are welcome.
+
+Installation
+------------
+Standard distutils are used - use "setup.py build" to build and "setup.install"
+to install. On most platforms, setup will find the Python and Subversion
+development libraries by itself. On Windows you may have to set various
+environment variables, see the next section for details.
+
+Build instructions for Windows
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* Install the SVN dev kit ZIP for Windows from
+ http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32svn/files/
+ E.g. svn-win32-1.4.6_dev.zip
+* Find the SVN binary ZIP file with the binaries for your dev kit.
+ E.g. svn-win32-1.4.6.zip
+ Unzip this in the *same directory* as the dev kit - README.txt will be
+ overwritten, but that is all. This is the default location the .ZIP file
+ will suggest (ie, the directory embedded in both .zip files are the same)
+* Set SVN_DEV to point at this directory.
+* Install BDB.
+ For Subversion 1.7.0 and later:
+ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/berkeleydb/downloads/index-082944.html
+ download Berkeley DB 4.8.30.msi Windows installer and install it.
+ For Subversion 1.6.17 and earlier:
+ http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=688
+ download "db-4.4.20-win32.zip" or earlier version of BDB and extract it.
+* Set SVN_BDB to the installed directory or extracted directory.
+* Install SVN libintl.
+ http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=2627
+ Download svn-win32-libintl.zip.
+ extrat it to the directory that you want.
+* Set SVN_LIBINTL to the extract dir.
