# SVN Repository Exploring Perspective

## Overview

The Eclipse SVN plug-in provides a dedicated perspective for working with SVN repositories. To activate this perspective, choose Window > Open Perspective > Other... and select SVN Repository Exploring.

## Views

The perspective is comprised primarily of two views; the SVN Repository view and History view. The SVN Repository view shows the SVN repository locations that you have defined to your workbench. The History view is comprised of three individual panes and lists the revision history for a specific resource (file or folder) as it exists in the SVN repository.
