<para>Use a disk with sufficient free space. You may need
anything from 200&nbsp;MB to over 500&nbsp;MB, depending on the
method you choose. This space will hold the SGML tools, a
subset of the <application>svn</application> tree, temporary
build space and the installed web pages.</para>
<note>
<para>Make sure your documentation ports are up to date! When
in doubt, remove the old ports using &man.pkg.delete.1;
command before installing the port. For example, we currently
depend on jade-1.2 and if you have installed jade-1.1, please
do:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput><command>pkg_delete</command> jade-1.1</userinput></screen>

<command>svn</command> can be installed with &man.pkg.add.1;
or from the &os; Ports Collection by running:</para>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput><command>cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion</command></userinput>
&prompt.root; <userinput><command>make</command> <maketarget>install clean</maketarget></userinput></screen>

run:</para>

<tip>
<para>If <command>svn</command> is not run as

permissions for the current user. If changing the
permissions is not possible, use a different target
directory for the website files.</para>
</tip>
<para>When <command>svn</command> finishes, the current version
of the &os; website will exist within <filename

<para>The build requires a few files from the Ports Collection
and may fail without a properly configured Ports CVS
mirror. Set the <makevar>NOPORTSCVS</makevar> environment
