# Subversion Support

The Studio uses the Eclipse Subversive (opens new window) to provide Subversion support.

When updating or adding Eclipse plugins or software, the software repository varies with the version of Studio:

Appcelerator Studio Version Eclipse Repository Name Eclipse Version
2.1.x Helios 3.6
3.0.x - 3.1.3 Indigo 3.7
3.1.4 - 3.4.x Kepler 4.3
4.0.0 - 5.x Luna 4.4
6.x - latest 2019-09 4.13

Please ask your Confluence administrator to update the license for the MultiExcerpt Plugin for Confluence 4+ (opens new window) . Admin Info: The error is: license VERSION_MISMATCH
