Subversion

An older source control system is Subversion. Subversion was developed and first used in 2004 and is maintained by the Apache Software Foundation. Subversion is a centralized source control system that supports all the features that you would expect of such a system.

There are many false arguments as to where Subversion would be inferior to Git, however, most of them are not true for more recent versions of Subversion. The reality is that Subversion is a widely used type of source control system that performs well, especially for very large repositories or repositories that have very specific authorization needs.

While Azure DevOps cannot host Subversion repositories, it can connect to, and work with, sources that are stored in Subversion.
