1 Make sure that you’ve successfully set up an SVN connection.
2 Do one of the following:
• Display the local version of your SVN files in the Files panel by selecting Local view from the View pop-up menu.
(If you are working in the expanded Files panel, the Local view is automatically displayed.) Then right-click
(Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the file you want to see revisions for and select Version Control > Show
Revisions.

by clicking the Repository Files button in the expanded Files panel. Then right-click (Windows) or Control-click
(Macintosh) the file you want to see revisions for and select Show Revisions.
3 In the Revision History dialog box, select the revision or revisions you’re interested in and do one of the following:
• Click Compare to Local to compare the selected revision with the local version of the file.
Note: You must install a third-party file comparison tool before you can compare files. For more information on file
comparison tools, use a web search engine such as Google Search to search for “file comparison” or “diff ” tools.
Dreamweaver works with most third-party tools.
• Click Compare to compare two selected revisions. Control-click to select two revisions simultaneously.
• Click View to view the selected revision. This action does not overwrite the current local copy of the same file.
You can save the selected revision to your hard drive just as you would save any other file.
• Click Promote to make the selected revision the most current revision in the repository.
Lock and unlock files
Locking a file in the SVN repository lets other users know that you are working on a file. Other users can still edit the
file locally, but will not be able to commit the file until you’ve unlocked it. When you lock a file in the repository, you’ll
see an open-lock icon on the file. Other users see a completely locked icon.
1 Make sure that you’ve successfully set up an SVN connection.
2 Do one of the following:
• Display the SVN repository files by selecting Repository View from the View pop-up menu in the Files panel, or
by clicking the Repository Files button in the expanded Files panel. Then right-click (Windows) or Control-click
(Macintosh) the file you’re interested in and select Lock or Unlock.
• Display the local version of your SVN files in the Files panel by selecting Local view from the View pop-up menu.

2 In the Files panel, select the file you want to add to the repository and click the Check In button.
3 Make sure that the file is selected for Commit in the Commit dialog box and click OK.
