Adam Frisby a0fc29878e * Added a directory for the SVN module. More about to come.* SVNBackupModule
* See OpenSim.ini.example settings for how to use
* Only compatible with svn:// and http:// authentication for the moment (and only using simple authentication). SSL/SSH key support is supported by the library used (SvnDotNet), but is not yet supported in OpenSim.
* Use the command "svn save" to make a copy of your regions to SVN. Presently this is not an automatic process, but such a feature is on the todo list.
* It will in your repository create a subdirectory for each region with the regions UUID, inside there it will create a 'terrain load' compatible 'heightmap.r32', and a load-xml2 compatible 'objects.xml' plus information files.
* Untested on Linux, some compatibility work may be needed by Linux peoples. The dependencies will be the same as for SvnDotNet which is supposedly mono-compatible.

README.txt

Welcome to OpenSim! 

Version 0.5

== OVERVIEW ==

OpenSim is a BSD Licensed Open Source project to develop a functioning
virtual worlds server platform capable of supporting multiple clients
and servers in a heterogeneous grid structure. OpenSim is written in
C#, and can run under Mono or the Microsoft .NET runtimes.

This is considered an alpha release.  Some stuff works, a lot
doesn't.  If it breaks, you get to keep *both* pieces.

== Installation on Windows ==

Prereqs:

 * Load OpenSim.sln into Visual Studio .NET and build the solution.
 * chdir bin
 * OpenSim.exe

See configuring OpenSim

== Installation on Linux ==

Prereqs:
 * Mono >= 1.2.3.1
 * Nant >= 0.85
 * sqlite3

From the distribution type:
 * nant
 * cd bin
 * mono ./OpenSim.exe

See configuring OpenSim

== Configuring OpenSim ==

When OpenSim starts for the first time, you will be prompted with a
series of questions that look something like:

[09-17 03:54:40] DEFAULT REGION CONFIG: Simulator Name [OpenSim Test]:

At each of these you must provide you own value or just hit enter to
take the default (in this case "OpenSim Test").

YOUR SIM WILL NOT BE STARTED UNTIL YOU ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS

Once you are presented with a prompt that looks like:

  Region# :

You have successfully started OpenSim.

== Connecting to your OpenSim ==

By default your sim will be running on http://127.0.0.1:9000.  To use
your OpenSim add -loginuri http://127.0.0.1:9000 to your second life
client (running on the same machine as your OpenSim).

== More Information on OpenSim ==

More extensive information on building, running, and configuring
OpenSim, as well as how to report bugs, and participate in the OpenSim
project can always be found at http://opensimulator.org.

Thanks for trying OpenSim, we hope it was a pleasant experience.
