    139139You can download the source code as it existed on a particular day as follows:
     140{{{
     141svn co -r '{2008-09-01}' https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/develbranch_6 grass6_20080901
     142}}}
    140143
     144You can then step forward in time to another date as follows:
    141145{{{
    142  svn co -r '{2008-09-01}' https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/develbranch_6 grass6_20080901
     146svn update -r '{2008-09-04}'
    143147}}}
     148
     149This can be useful to help narrow down which change introduced some weird behaviour.

    145152While SVN history for many individual files exists back to 1999, if you want to go back in time to GRASS 5 days you should use the GRASS 5 CVS instead. The directory layout was widely changed between GRASS 5 and 6 and the earliest version of GRASS 6 that will actually compile on its own will be just before the 5.7.0 development release.
