 == Checking out MacPorts sources using Subversion ==
 
-To checkout the sources with Subversion, for read-only access, use commands such as the following:
+To checkout the sources with Subversion:
 
 {{{
 # Checkout the macports trunk
-svn checkout http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/trunk macports-trunk
+svn checkout http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk macports-trunk
 }}}
 
-To gain commit access to the repository, you must be granted an account, and be given appropriate privileges. Once that is done, you may checkout the source tree using https:
+When committing to the repository for the first time, subversion will use your local account name as the username for svn.macports.org. This is almost certainly the wrong username, so you can either hit enter when it says "password for 'local-user-name':" and then enter the correct alias at macports.org when it prompts for username, or you can pass --username to svn like the following example:
 
 {{{
-# Checkout the macports trunk
-svn checkout https://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/trunk macports-trunk --username your_handle at macports.org
+svn ci . -m 'log message' --username alias at macports.org
 }}}
+
+After the first commit with the correct username and password, subversion will cache this information (in ~/.subversion/).
