How to download this google code with Tortose SVN?

I am trying to download http://code.google.com/p/pagedown/ from google code.

Having not done this before, have installed Tortoise SVN and tried various addresses to SVN Checkout.

Addresses I have tried that have resulted in a (405 method not allowed) https://code.google.com/p/pagedown/
http://code.google.com/p/pagedown/
http://code.google.com/p/pagedown/source/browse/hg

How can I find out which address I should be using?

Also, I am logged into the site as I have a gmail with google.

(Hopefully I have found the correct WMD editor too). Thanks

Solution

  • the source is using a mercurial repository not a subversion one ... install tortoisehg ( http://tortoisehg.bitbucket.io/ ) and then use the url provided ( https://code.google.com/p/pagedown/ ).

    For new mercurial users you should read Joel's great article on http://hginit.com/

    Cheers!
