You can get the latest source code by Subversion at InriaForge:

  svn checkout svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/trunk mpfr

or

  svn checkout https://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/trunk mpfr

(the last argument can be any directory name). You can use

  svn ls svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/branches

  svn ls svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/tags

to get the list of branches or tags (releases), then checkout a

particular branch or tag instead of the trunk. Alternatively, you

can now use the "https:" scheme (a.k.a. DAV) instead of "svn:".

For more information about Subversion, please see:

  * http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ (the official Subversion book);

  * https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SvnHelp (written for GCC developers,

    but interesting general information can be found there);

  * http://subversion.apache.org/faq.html (the Subversion FAQ).

Subversion users should read the file "doc/README.dev" (provided via

SVN only).
