    <p>
    The PKGBUILD files can be fetched via the ABS utility. To learn more
    about ABS, see <a href="http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS">the ABS wiki page</a>.
    </p>
    <p>
    You can view the history of all the PKGBUILD files from the Repository
    <a href="http://repos.archlinux.org/">WebSVN</a> interface.
    </p>
    <p>
    You can also get individual PKGBUILDs directly from SVN. This can be
    especially useful if you need to compile an older version of a package.
    <strong>DO NOT CHECK OUT THE ENTIRE SVN REPO</strong>. Your address may be
    blocked.  Use the following commands to check out a specific package:
    </p>
    <pre>
        svn checkout --depth=empty svn://svn.archlinux.org/packages
        cd packages
        svn update &lt;your-package-name&gt;
    </pre>
    For the community repository, use the following commands instead:
    <pre>
        svn checkout --depth=empty svn://svn.archlinux.org/community
        cd community
        svn update &lt;your-package-name&gt;
    </pre>
    <p>
    Visit <a href="http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Getting_PKGBUILDS_From_SVN">the wiki</a> for more tips on checking out and updating svn PKGBUILDs.
