For SVN you'll have to install ​Tortoise SVN because the build process makes use of one of its tools (SubWCRev). You need to have the bin folder of TortoiseSVN (usually C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin) in your PATH environment variable. Changing the PATH variable requires you to re-login to your Windows account to put them into effect. * SVN repository stable branch: ​https://src.heuristiclab.com/svn/core/stable (recommended: tested and reviewed changes only). * SVN repository main trunk: ​https://src.heuristiclab.com/svn/core/trunk/sources (not recommended: frequent and unreviewed changes, moderate testing) * Full SVN repository: ​https://src.heuristiclab.com/svn/core (only for HL core developers!
