    Hi I’m more familiar with SVN so I have been using SVN on my PC.

    I’d like to link up to Mark’s repository so I can just pull down whatever changes he has made to my Monkey2 folder, but when I tried to use the link provided in “Download” button it wanted to pull down all sorts of subfolders like V001….V009 and stuff.

    Does anybody know what I would need to do to get latest Monkey2 on Github and get it to pull down to a C:\Monkey\Monkey2\  folder ?

    Does subversion even support the git protocol?  If you need a copy of the source code you can use the zip file function on the GitHub portal page, but without proper git support you won’t have much luck making pull requests…

     

    AFAIK, svn doesn’t have distributed version control, but if you really wanted to keep similar commandline syntax to svn you could try pulling from the repo using mercurial with the hg-git plugin.
