Note: If you don't want use [live snapshot] you can download a older snapshot of the source code, version 3.6.9, here.
Note: This step is only for those who want the bleeding-edge source code to compile on their own. You can skip this if you intend to use a provided binary executable.

Subversion is a version control system used to record the changes in documents, such as source files. Developers use Subversion so they can easily share their code changes among other developers through a SVN repository. Be aware that when you use Subversion, you use the most up-to-date code : It may or may not be better than a release. It may be worse, less stable, or not even compile.
You will need this tool to download ("checkout" in SVN terminology) fs2_open from the SVN repository.
Debian/Ubuntu users want to:
$ apt-get install subversion
Gentoo users want to:
$ emerge -a subversion
Archlinux users want to:
$ pacman -Sy subversion
Fedora Core 6 (Zod) (And most likely Redhat) users want to:
# yum install subversion
Mandriva users want to:
# urpmi subversion
Novell SuSE users install subversion via YaST.
