I wrote an article about a year ago, about svn (Subversion) being missing in Mountain Lion (10.8) and how to install it manually. Since then, I’ve got a new mac and have used myself this post to install it on the new machine. Since then there has also been new versions of subversion but unfortunately all my software are not compatible with it. So I’ve been looking into this topic again and wanted to share.

A task has emerged to install latest subversion for a group of mac os x users (latest mac os version). I have tried first to install it manually from subversion.tigris.org, 'opencollabnet binary' (.
- JETech M0884 Bluetooth Wireless Mouse for PC, Mac, and Android OS. May 27, 2020 TortoiseSVN is an Apache ™ Subversion (SVN) ® client, implemented as a Windows shell extension. It's intuitive and easy to use, since it doesn't require the Subversion command line client to run. And it is free to use, even in a commercial environment.
- If you use OS X as your development platform, Vincent Danen recommends his favorite Subversion client application for the Mac, the powerful and feature-rich, Cornerstone.
Another way to install svn on mac is to use a ditribution package from wandisco. They are available here. Do not use the packages on CollabNet which are outdated.
Unzip the .pkg file and double click on it and follow the instructions to have it installed.

I still like it better with Homebrew since it makes it very easy to upgrade the packages and switch between packages.

To find out the version currently active with Homebrew:
You can check the versions of subversion which are available using:
This will return multiple lines, one per version, each containing a version number and the checkout command e.g.:
Choose the version you want to install e.g. here 1.8.1, switch Homebrew’s prefix,checkout the package and install it:
Then reset the formula:
You can then switch between versions using brew switch (which updates the symlink in /usr/local/bin to the specified formula version in the Homebrew cellar) e.g.:
Of course mechanism can be used for any other Homebrew package.
If you get errors in XCode while accessing working copies created with a newer version, you might need to link the newer version into XCode by doing the following:
- Create a backup directory for the svn binaries currently used by XCode
- Moving the current binaries to the backup folder
- Linking the binaries of the new version installed with Homebrew into Xcode (as a replacement for the moved ones)
You can do that by executing the following and replacing 1.7.4 by the actual subversion version you want to use in XCode:
Note that you can also use Homebrew-versions instead. It provides multiple formulas for different versions of existing packages e.g. subversion1.6 and subversion1.7. If you use it, you will of course not be able to upgrade from 1.7 to 1.8 but only from 1.7.2 to 1.7.3 but it’s maybe what you are after…
You can install from Homebrew-versions using:
You’ll notice that Homebrew-versions only has packages for subversion 1.6 and 1.7. But I guess 1.8 should come soon.
So there are quite a few ways to install subversion on your mac and handle different versions. The one I like best is still just installing it with Homebrew and switching to the one I use most. The other versions are still available by other switching to a particular version as shown above or by using the svn command from a particular version in the Homebrew Cellar e.g.

Subversion Macros
If you don’t have a Mac, or don’t know what SVN is, please accept my apologies for this very directed post. To the one guy remaining, rejoice: For the longest time, there has been no good SVN interface available on the Mac. Windows folks had TortoiseSVN, and Linux folks wouldn’t be caught dead using anything other than command line tools (or, git, for that matter). So, everybody was happy but us Mac folks. A program called “Versions” has been available for a while, but it, sadly, epitomizes the style over substance sin that is so prevalent on the Mac. It’s got a beautiful interface, but it’s an interface to very little.
Subversion Macos Catalina
Namely, it doesn’t support merging or branching, which is pretty much the most important reason for using a versioning system like SVN. If you’re not branching and merging, you might as well just use a good backup system, because that’s pretty much all you’re using SVN for at that point. So, I was very excited to find “Cornerstone,” which was recently upgraded to support the slickest SVN interface I’ve seen on any platform. It’s as pretty as “Versions” and as powerful (if not moreso) than TortoiseSVN. It’s merge facility is the best approach I’ve seen, for example. It’s intuitive, and as you adjust the settings it automatically performs a trial merge and gives you the results in real time.
