Look at the help or manpage for svnlook and compare it to svn help co, for example, svnlook needs a path to a repo, svn co URLs. svnlook may just be available in whatever you installed to use Subversion, as some distribution provide client and server binaries in one package. > 3- > How do we know if the host we're running on is an svn server and not a > svn client ? > How do we know from the installation perspective that we have a local > svn server ? I think you can't be sure, you can only guess after checking all different methods to run an svn server: httpd, svnserve and whatever is available. What's the reason behind this question? > 4- > Is a working copy trunk after checking out from a remote server trunk > be considered a repository ? No, it's a working copy as everything client side which was fetched from a server and is still under version control is a working copy. In contrary to an export for example, which is fetched from a server/repo, but is not under version control anymore. > We ask because we're not sure when notes on the internet that says > repository, do they mean on the server or the local copy. Repository means server, but as always sometimes people use terms wrongly or one just misunderstands the context, as repositories of course can be local to the server serving the repos. Most of the time it's clear in the context, else just ask the list. :-) Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Thorsten Schöning -- Thorsten Schöning E-Mail:thorsten.schoen...@am-soft.de AM-SoFT IT-Systeme http://www.AM-SoFT.de/ Telefon...........05151- 9468- 55 Fax...............05151- 9468- 88 Mobil..............0178-8 9468- 04 AM-SoFT GmbH IT-Systeme, Brandenburger Str. 7c, 31789 Hameln AG Hannover HRB 207 694 - Geschäftsführer: Andreas Muchow
