Yes, all source available from the Subversion repository via http/https is what I'm mainly looking for. Read only access would allow update of a developer's current tree. I actually advocated Subversion when arch was chosen a few years ago. Subversion is a good SCM, but a lot of open source projects have moved to git. However, if Subversion is adequate, I see no pressing reason to switch to git. There are some nice tools to track source code at a high level via git though.
