[opensuse-factory] Question about usage of the svn command
If I want to run: svn co https://github.com/liosha/osm2mp osm2mp on e.g. Leap or also TW, do I have to run the command as root (with sudo) or do I run it as user? What would be the consequence running it as user? I suppose, if it is possible, that I may not work at all. But if it would be restricted to that specific user it would be O.k. The whole thing is a converter script in perl that should transform gps data to a garmin/tomtom etc compatible format. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.

Why use svn instead of 'git clone' ?

As a user. Only install the result as root, if you want it systemwide

Because the instructions on the page he is following say to use svn :-) - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

As user. I answered this on another post. I'm not familiar with sm2mp, but I'm familiar enough with svn. As far as you are concerned, it is just a plain download command. The command is "svn checkout source_tree_link directory" and it just makes a copy of the source tree directory (or text files or whatever) into "directory". If it were the case of C source files you would _later_ make and install them as root later. That is _later_. The svn command is run as user. Note: my description of svn is (intentionally) not precise. For your use case, it suffices, though. If you want to be more precise, well, the svn server keeps a current copy of "text files", but also of all the modifications that those text files undergo, so that you can undo some modification or get a copy of the files as they were on an exact date (and second) a year ago. Writers upload the modifications, and people can "checkout" a copy. You are only getting a copy of the files as they are this instant. A checkout, or 'co' in short. This is the least of your worries. Just run the command as user and move on to your next step :-) - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

Thank you all, especially for the last explanation that was fantasticly "down to earth".
