This is the first public Release Candidate for Subversion 1.4.0, as
serious problems were found with the previous three release candidates
before they were made publicly available.
The term 'release candidate' means the Subversion developers feel that
this release is stable and ready for production use, so we encourage
people to test this release thoroughly. The final stable 1.4.0 release
is scheduled for late-August, in order to provide plenty of time for
testing.
As a note to operating system distro packagers: while we wish to have
this release candidate widely tested, we do not feel that it is ready
for packaging and providing to end-users through a distro package
system. Packaging a release candidate poses many problems, the
biggest being that our policy lets us break compatibility between the
release candidate and the final release, if we find something serious
enough. Having many users depending on a release candidate through
their distro would cause no end of pain and frustration that we do not
want to have to deal with. However, if your distro has a branch that
is clearly labeled as containing experimental and often broken
software, and explicitely destined to consenting developers and
integrators only, then we're okay with packaging the release candidate
there. Just don't let it near the end users please.
There are two important things to note if you wish to test this
release candidate.
First, you see that we have decided to splice out the libraries that
we used to ship alongside the Subversion source code into a separate
package. If you wish to use the dependencies we provide, you must
download both the subversion source package and the corresponding
'-deps' package, and decompress both into the same directory.
Second, and extremely important: due to various improvements made to
the working copy library, the working copy format has changed. Using
Subversion 1.4.0-rc4 on any working copy created by previous versions
of Subversion will TRANSPARENTLY upgrade your working copy, which
means that production-ready versions of Subversion will no longer be
able to read it! Please be careful, if you have two versions of
Subversion running on your machine, to not use the wrong version on a
production working copy.
You can find list of changes between 1.3.2 and 1.4.0-rc4 at:
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/tags/1.4.0-rc4/CHANGES
New 1.4 features are explained in detail in our release notes, located
at:
http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.4_releasenotes.html
The release notes are currently incomplete, but will be completed as
we move towards the final release.
Thanks,
The Subversion team.
