<section name="About Subversion">
- <p>
- Write a synopsis about subversion here!
+ <p>
+ Subversion is an open source version control system, released under
+ an Apache/BSD-style license. This application was designed, and is on
+ track to replace CVS. Users familiar with CVS will be able to jump into
+ Subversion easily as most of the interface is the same. Details about
+ the benefits and technical information can be viewed on the Subversion
+ home page, here are just a few of the highlights:
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ Atomic Commits
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Versioned meta-data
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Revision numbers are per-commit, not per-file
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Uses Apache web server and WebDAV/DeltaV for network communication
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Enables binary diffs
+ </li>
+ </ul>
