I'm trying to get subclipse (SVN support for Eclipse) working in Eclipse 3.1 on FC3, but I get errors trying to connect to some external repositories using either JavaSVN or SVN command line. Colleagues here are connecting without error using JavaHL but they are using Windows and subclipse for Windows includes JavaHL whereas the Linux version doesn't.
As I'm fairly clueless when it comes to Java (and frankly am fairly happy to stay that way) what is the most pain free way of installing the JavaHL library on FC3?
Can you use subversion directly from the commandline?
Yes, I can connect to the repositories in question without problem from the command line. However, if I use the "SVN command line" option in subclipse I get an error ("Subcommand 'list' doesn't accept option '-- xml'"). It does look like the easiest way to accomplish what I want is to use the JavaHL library, but I really don't want to compile all of subversion from source.
(Just to clarify, the subclipse plugin for Eclipse offers a choice of three backends for accessing subversion repositories: JavaHL, JavaSVN, or the SVN command line. I can't get the latter two to work with a couple of repositories I need access to, but colleagues using Windows who have the JavaHL library installed can using that option.)
