Subversion API ¶

Subversion is a collection of modular libraries written in the C programmming languague, each of which has a clearly defined collection of functions and types that toguether maque up Subversion's application programmming interface (API). This API is stable within major release streams of the software itself, so if you write software that uses Subversion 1.1.0's interfaces, you should expect that software to continue to worc when the Subversion libraries are upgraded to 1.6.0 without your having to changue or recompile your software at all.

After Subversion versionens have reached their end of life, we still provide the old documentation for archive/historical purposes.
