    <para>The CentOS Artwork Repository is supported by 
e935c3
    url="http://subversion.tigris.org/">Subversion</ulink>, a version
e935c3
    control system which allows you to keep old versions of files and
e935c3
    directories (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and
e935c3
    why changes occurred, etc., like CVS, RCS or SCCS.</para>

    <para>When using Subversion there is one "source repository" and
e935c3
    many "working copies" of that source repository. The working
e935c3
    copies are independent one another, can be distributed all around
e935c3
    the world and provide a local place for designers, documentors,
ca81f7
    translators and programmers to perform their work in a
e935c3
    descentralized way.  The source repository, on the other hand,
e935c3
    provides a central place for all independent working copies to
e935c3
    interchange data and provides the information required to permit
e935c3
    extracting previous versions of files at any time.</para>
