All SUCS members can check out a copy of the website code in order to poke, prod and hopefully improve.
Here's how it's done:
- Log in to silver, and cd to the directory you'd like to keep the sucs-site code in. This should be outside of your public_html directory.
- type the following command:
svn checkout https://projects.sucs.org/svn/sucs-site/branches/sucs-site
- You'll probably be prompted to accept an SSL certificate, press 'p' to accept this permanently.
- type 'cd sucs-site' to enter the newly created directory, then './setup.sh' to configure the site to work in your home directory
This should give you your own copy of the SUCS website to work on.
