MPlayer's DOCS/tech/svn-howto.txt is quite useful for some things so I
would recommend reading this though any policy stuff doesn't
necessarily apply to this project they're generally good guidelines.

You may want to export the EDITOR environment variable so when you
make a commit, it prompts you for the commit message by opening your
favourite editor. Personally I have:

export EDITOR="nano -w"

...in my ~/.bashrc. Otherwise when committing you need to use the -m
"Message here" option though this is more difficult to use for
messages longer than 80 chars that need new lines and so on.

- Check out the soc repo:
svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/soc

- Make a directory for your work and commit it:
cd soc
mkdir mxf
svn add mxf
svn commit

- Add your code
cd mxf
cp /path/to/mxf.c .
svn add mxf.c
svn commit

Then just make changes, use svn diff to make diffs (or you can have a
git repository within your svn repository and use git-format-patch or
whatever) and commit.

Hope that helps,
Rob
