Filesystem right|thumb One can view the Subversion filesystem as "two-dimensional".Basic Merging Two coordinates are used to unambiguously address filesystem items: Path (regular path of Unix-like OS filesystem) Revision Each revision in a Subversion filesystem has its own root, which is used to access contents at that revision. Files are stored as links to the most recent change; thus a Subversion repository is quite compact. The system consumes storage space proportional to the number of changes made, not to the number of revisions.
