You need to look at SVNKIT, Subversion for Java . From there:

He supports

  • Access to the repository via http (s), svn, svn (+ ssh) and file protocols.
  • Working copy operations - all supported.
  • Storage administration: create, load, reset and play.
  • In addition to its own API, SVNKit implements the JavaHL API.
  • SVNKit is reportedly running on Windows, OSX, Linux, BSD, and OpenVMS.
  • SVNKit does not require its own binaries; it works out of the box.
  • Native Subversion configuration files are used by default.
  • The Java Subversion command line client is part of SVNKit.
  • The latest SVNKit supports Subversion 1.6.5.

Although I do not use it for my projects, it seems that the following library is worth a look. http://svnkit.com/

An easy way would be to run the svn from Java. For example, you can run the command

  svn cat yourfile.txt > /tmp/yourtemporaryplace.txt

then Java will read /tmp/yourtemporaryplace.txt . Better yet, read from the process running svn cat yourfile.txt , as in this question on java popen

You can also use the Java library of the SVN client, for example svnkit

(PS I do not code in Java at all, just searched for you)

If you do this at work and are not working on an open source project, I would move away from SVNKit. They call themselves open source, but will charge you if you use SVNKit for commercial purposes .

Another good option is Apache Maven SCM (source code manager). Documents are a little unstable, but it is really open source. Here is a link to their page with some SVN examples .
