Summary
SVN or Apache Sub-Versioning (formerly Sub-Versioning), was developed as a replacement to CVS (Concurrent Versioning System) due to issues it faced. Collabnet Inc., a company that specializes in lifecycle management software, decided not to amend CVS, but develop a new concept of version control which would ultimately omit issues and add features not found in CVS. With the assistance of Karl Fogel, co-author of Open Source Development With CVS, and Jim Blandy, SVN came into being and distributed as an open source tool.
