Well, thanks for the help guys. I think I finally got "make" and "make
install" to work, and when I go to /usr/local/bin, I see all of the
subversion programs. However, when I use 'svn' from the command line, it
says:
bash: /usr/bin/svn: No such file or directory
What is wrong? I should be able to do checkouts at this point right?
