Install SVN Plugin in Eclipse: Step-by-Step Guide

There are several methods to install the SVN plugin.

1. Search and install the SVN plugin in the Eclipse marketplace. Open Eclipse, click on the menu bar “Help” -> “Eclipse Marketplace”, enter “SVN” or “Subversion” in the search box, select the appropriate plugin, and click on the “Go” button to search. Once you find the suitable plugin, click on the “Install” button to proceed with the installation.
2. Install the SVN plugin through Eclipse’s update site. Open Eclipse, click on the “Help” menu -> “Install New Software”, and select the appropriate update site in the “Work with” input box, such as “Neon – https://download.eclipse.org/releases/neon”. Next, type “SVN” or “Subversion” in the search box and choose the suitable plugin to install.
3. Manually download and install the SVN plugin. Download the installation package of the SVN plugin from the official website of Eclipse (https://www.eclipse.org/) or the official website of the plugin developer. Then, in Eclipse, click on the menu bar “Help” -> “Install New Software”, in the pop-up dialog box, click on the “Add” button, select the downloaded plugin installation package for installation.

Regardless of which method you choose, you need to ensure that Eclipse has Java Development Tools (abbreviated as JDT) and relevant components of the Eclipse platform installed before installing the plugin. After installation, simply restart Eclipse to start using the SVN plugin.
