First you should download Tortoise SVN if you haven't already: http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads
Then create a folder under beyond the sword/mods called Song of the Moon.
Once Tortoise SVN is installed, right click on the folder you just created and select SVN checkout. In the area it asks for a URL, put in the URL I gave you and click okay. The files will then download to your computer.
Can I get in on the SVN as well?
I know I haven't been posting here much lately but I'm still reading everything and looking for things I can contribute.
I suppose I shouldn't have selected the HEAD option in the update screen.
The "revise" selection allows you to go to previous revisions (really handy when trying to find a bug as it allows you to easily go back to previous revisions of the mod to find out when the bug was introduced) Every time someone does an update (by right clicking on the projects folder(Song of the Moon) and clicking "SVN commit.." ) for the project, the project files are updated according to the revisions made and a new revision is created.So, HEAD revise selected gives the most current version?
What does the "revise" selection give then?
What HEAD?
Ah yes, things make sense now.
If I haven't said so already, a big thanks for setting this up for us, matthewv.

Did you manage to figure out your password and get everything working?
What would prevent us from downloading the art with the SVN as well?And how do we want to handle the Art folder?

yep, thanks.
Should I start updating the files I've converted or wait a bit on that.
And how do we want to handle the Art folder?
We have up to 100 meg of space we can add the art files for now and remove them later if we run low on space.Gerikes didn't do it that way with SMAC because of size. Is there a restriction?
when the BtS Editor file is almost 3MB on its ownQuota used: approximately 1.7 KB of 100 MB
I have a problem. I just tried to update the .svn with the mod's Civ4LSystem.xml and Civ4PlotLSystem.xml files but wasn't allowed? Whenever I enter my nick and a proper password I got refused. I tried the same nick+password on the Planetfall .svn and could update without a problem. O yes, updating SotM isn't a problem either, but there's not much to update isn't it?
