Hi. What's an SVN sauer? And how do I get it? Please help. Aaron.   ;D

SVN is a subversion
before the officioal version is launched
like a Beta
if you want to dowload the SVN of sauerbraten
you must need to download SVN turtoise
later make a folder with the name of the game or program, i use "Sauerbraten"
and clic right button and choose "SVN Checkout"
and in the URL paste this : https://sauerbraten.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sauerbraten
and just wait for the download if it does not download or an error u did something wrong.
thats all

The lord of the palaver.

More clarifications about SVN:
Subversion(aka SVN) is a tool for developers to manage source code, they can have different versions of the same document without doing manual copying and pasing(such a thing can also be used to manage different versions of an essay for example). Sauerbraten happens to use such a tool for its development, every new feature put in sauer first gets commited to the svn repository. From time to time, when the code is stable a release comes(like trooper). Right now we're close to a release coming, but since it's not released yet the only place to get it from is from the repository.
