For a long time I've wanted to start using Subversion. I see all the benefits of using such a system, but I haven't taken the time to learn it. I've installed it (v1.3.2) a long time ago, but I never really did anything with it -- it was simply so I could interact with SmartSVN (a SVN client) to download others' repositories. I think it's about time I start using it in a more meaningful way on my own projects. In order to do this, I thought it would be best to start from scratch (and therefore uninstalled all previous, remotely related software). (For further learning on SVN, please visit Red-Bean's SVN Book online.)

So, it had been so long since I've done anything with Subversion, where was I to begin? I've read about all the great and wonderful things SVN can offer, but...how do I get it, how do I install it, and then how can I access it?
