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.
Before you begin, make sure you have write permissions on your current working directory. $HOME/$USER is a pretty safe bet. I recommend that you create a permanent /$HOME/$USER/src directory from which you run the svn command, this way svn will only update the files changed the next time you download the source and it's always nice to have things organized. Make sure you have svn installed on your system. See the Installing Subversion chapter on installing Subversion.
Now get the source. Run from a terminal:
$ svn checkout svn://svn.icculus.org/fs2open/trunk/fs2_open
This will pull in in the source code from the 'HEAD' branch.
