svn checkout and debugging

I have access to a project on SVN server and need to debug and understand the project. I exported the project as to ensure no changes affect the production or most recent updated version. But I cannot successfully run the ANT build as it looks for the jar files on the SVN server.

Can the project not run locally like this with my machine able to ping the server? I am familiar with MAVEN but not ANT so not sure if the checkout plays an important part in this.

Since this is in version control, you can change things and see what happens. For example, if you have the jar files in a different location, change the ant script and see if it works.

If you type

svn status

it tells you the status; svn st for short.

If you want to roll back

svn revert [filename]

will put the script back as it was.

You need to do a svn commit to send changes back to the server.

Don't be afraid to try things locally.
