A couple more points on this 1) Apple's svn is 1.10.4, Simon's is 1.14.0 so you probably should not mix checkouts done with the different versions. 2) Digging amongst the versions available on developer.apple.com, CLT 11.3.1 contained svn etc, 11.5 did not (but did not remove existing tools, and neither did betas of 12).

Carl, the one in /usr/bin is just a stub from Apple that re-directs to real svn. Where that one is depends on your installed tools (Xcode/CLT,...), for CLT it is in $ ls -lh /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/svn -rwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 321K Jul 13 2019 /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/svn And it is a dynamic build so it needs all the dependent libraries (see otool -L). The build I'm providing is single-file so all (non-system) libraries are included in the binary hence it is bigger. As to where to put it, I'd probably use /usr/local/bin, but if you don't have access there you can run it from your home or anywhere else. Cheers, Simon

Not dumb. Simon's usual style is that tarballs are installed at / and things end up under /usr/local, using the procedure outlined at the bottom of https://mac.r-project.org/libs/ but you should probably check with "tar tvfz" first. -pd

1. svn now available from the tools (Simon Urbanek) ntent-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" If you want to build R from the svn repository you need svn (subversion). Xcode 10 has removed svn so it is no loner available from Apple, we are providing a binary (cmopatible with OS X 10.11 and higher) in https://mac.r-project.org/tools/ (in "optional tools and libraries" at the bottom), direct link: https://mac.r-project.org/tools/subversion-1.14.0-darwin15.6.tar.gz It is a single-file signed, static build so has no dependencies and can be run from anywhere.
