Checking out the latest stable version from the trunk
For anonymous, read-only access, type in:
| Code Block |
|---|
svn checkout https://coloredtrails.eecs.harvard.edu/repos/ct3/trunk |
For read-write access, type in:

- You will be prompted if you will accept the SSL license. Type in 'p' for permanently accepting the license.
- You will then be prompted for your password. Fill it in and hit enter.
After the initial checkout, svn will store the URL, your username and password in a hash-file, so you will only have to write these out once.
