How to install RapidSVN on CentOS

To start off, you need to grab the necessary rpm packages. Just go to pbone and type RapidSVN and wxGTK in the search box. and look for the correct rpm packages that match your OS. Besides this, you also need to have subversion, instead of using rpm, i am going to use yum to do it

yum install subversion

After that, install wxGTK follow by rapidSVN.

rpm -ivh wxGTK-2.8.9-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm

rpm -ivh rapidsvn-0.9.6-2.el5.rf.i386.rpm

If everything done nicely, you should be able to launch RapidSVN as below

Is there a specific reason I need to install subversion on my CentOS machine if already have a repository server elsewhere on the network. I only want the svn client on the CentOS machine. Can I use your process here to just install RapidSVN?

RapidSVN is just a GUI and underlying, it is still using subversion commands.
