Thanks, Platonides.
I know the svn command to checkout or export a directory.
But I want to emphasis that the collaboration model are different between
svn and git.
For example, if I want to add some test cases, I need someone to grant me
the svn access.
While in github, I can push my contribution back to upstream very easily,
and the original author can choice what back to him.
Above is just my advice, if Andreas choices svn, I will follow his change on
svn also.
Let's drop the irrelevant discussion on git/svn issue, and back to the main
topic.
Regards,
Mingli

Great news!
Just an advice: could you commit the code into github? So we can fork
it, play with and contribute back easily.
Svn is not as convenient as git and the mediawiki svn repository is too
large.
Free software should be really free, not be bounded in a centralized
repository. :-)

svn doesn't have the git inconvenient of forcing you to checkout all or
nothing.
To get only libmwparser just run:
svn checkout
