We use Git and SVN for managing projects.
I personally work on Github, GitLab and BitBucket. I’m more familiar with Git commands.
WordPress itself use the SVN for hosting plugins and themes. I have created a WordPress Theme and Plugins. But, I personally not use SVN though command line.
I personally use Tortoise SVN for managing my theme and plugins. It provides a GUI (Graphic User Interface) which allow working on SVN with a very easy way. Read more about Tortoise SVN.
I was always querying about,
- How to work on SVN though command line?
- Which are the basic SVN commands like Git?
- What is the difference between Git and SVN commands?
- etc.
I’ll create an article on all the above questions which I have tried to resolve soon.
For now, I have created a table of Git vs SVN commands. You can also check below the table of Git vs SVN commands for reference.
