It took me a little digging around to get subversion running locally on my mac. No, I'm not a total tool trying to have a versioning system installed locally, I'm doing it so I can work on a bamboo plug-in.
Make sure I am up to date with subversion:
fink update svn
Tell subversion where the repo is:
svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /path/to/repo
Add your local subversion to eclipse as a repo:
file://localhost/path/to/repo
Pretty easy really... just had to find all the steps.
I think it's not only good practice to use a repository for all your programming work, it can also save you a lot of time. I have a personal repository set up for all my projects with my hosting for my domain. Having a repository can save you a lot of time and frustration. And it's also nice to be able to work on your project no matter where you are, as long as you have an internet connection.
