The first link doesn’t work. :expressionless: Also, thanks for posting this! I’m not very sure what an SVN Repo is, but by the looks of it it looks helpful!

Thanks!

SuperNerd256, the first “link” is the command to checkout the documents from command-line svn, it is NOT a URL (or a link for that matter).

#4

If you have not received appropriate approval from FIRST to re-host their files, I would recommend you to seek approval before you do so.

#5

I would be nervous using this. If for some reason it doesn’t get updated, a team could be hosed in many ways. It’s great to have an easy way to access the manual, but nothing beats downloading the official docs and checking every week for updates.

Just wanted to update…

The SVN Repository of the FRC 2012 Game Manual is working well and has been a convenient way to maintain an offline copy.

The Game Manual is archived with permission from FRC.
