Comment(by haiqu):
Interesting comments from both Rene and Urias there.
The glories of developing from within Linux have already been espoused
elsewhere. However, one then lacks a reference platform for compatibility
testing, which is present when developing from BeOS. I also have no
intention of ever using Linux or BSD again for a working environment, so
installing it wasn't ever an option.
The compatibility issues between versions of Subversion are precisely the
reason we need a working (minimum) svn-1.4.6-beos build. Currently the
BeOS version used is svn-1.1.3 which is a dinosaur. Keeping a single copy
of the repository sources on an external drive - in my case, a USB memory
stick - and accessing it from both systems ensures that I don't get
glitches caused from building an incomplete source tree, and also saves
having to `svn up` from two different operating systems.
So, that's my reasoning anyhow.
