Has anybody used them? I’m talking about the new 1.3 release. The python examples in the subversion book don’t exactly help and I am sorely missing installation instructions. I have 0 (read this _zero_) SWIG experience so the whole task seems a bit much. Anybody can point me to the right direction? On another note (slightly off-topic in this list, but I also ask in the subversion lists 🙂 ): I would really like to see a binary distribution for these bindings. A gem would be really nice! Who do I talk to about helping? Is anyone interested? Cheers, V.- – [http://www.braveworld.net/riva](http://www.braveworld.net/riva) ---

I’ve used them since they first surfaced in the RC’s, mostly for a OSS project of mine called Collaboa ([collaboa.org](http://collaboa.org)), which is a Trac inspired thing… I’ve promised to start writing some docs for the bindings, but haven’t gotten that far yet. Your best chance of learning is by looking at the unit tests for the ruby bindings, and the lib in the subversion distribution (./subversion/bindings/swig/ruby/). and the two ruby examples in ./tools/examples/ of the tarball. And perhaps even by looking at my code, as a last resort. 😉 I am not familiar with any other (open sourcy) libs/projects that uses the svn-rb bindings yet, but perhaps they’re out there?
