How to do stuff in subversion, when you're used to git:
# create a new branch
svn copy -m "Branching trunk" https://www.example.com/svn/repos/project/trunk https://www.example.com/svn/repos/project/branches/new_branch_name
# check out new branch
svn checkout https://www.example.com/svn/repos/project/branches/new_branch_name
# check status/diffs of working directory
svn status
svn diff
# show a specific commit
svn diff -c63197
svn diff -c63197 | vim -R -
svn diff -r63196:63197
svn diff -c63197 db/src/securesite/
# commit files
svn commit -m'Commit message' filename.ext
# see your changes after committing
svn update
# find where a branch was cut from trunk (svn equivalent of git mergebase)
# The last commit will be the first one in this branch after it was cut from trunk:
svn log -v --stop-on-copy
# cherry pick
svn merge -cXXXX trunk branch
# revert a commit
svn merge -c -REV .
