I believe that I’ll have to write a script in order to know what is the latest official release of Apache 2.2 under https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags , and then do a svn checkout on the said release. I need to automatically get the latest official release of Apache 2.2 (and 2.4). I will proceed to write the script with the information you’ve given. Thanks again. JHello Michael, Forgot to mention the obvious. The easiest way to know the latest official release version numbers is from the Apache HTTP Server project home page: http://httpd.apache.org/I think Michael was hoping for an "always current" URL he could hit, lik e: $ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags/2.2.x-latest A redirect that sent that to https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags/2.2.31 would be kind of nice. That would allow an automated script to always pull the latest version, rather than having to screen-scrape the project home page.
This reminded me of how it was handled on linux's kernel website, using finger. Though now it doees not work anymore:
$ finger @kernel.org
[kernel.org]
finger: connect: Connection timed out
$
Anyway, they have this at least for this kind of stuff:
$ curl -s --silent https://www.kernel.org/finger_banner
The latest mainline version of the Linux kernel is: 4.7-rc2

The latest linux-next version of the Linux kernel is: next-20160609

On apache a quick / dirty and probably buggy way can be:
$ lynx -dump httpd.apache.org | grep Released | awk '{ print $3 }'
2.4.20
2.2.31
$
But then you have to choose a mirror anyway.
Checking svn tags:
$ curl -sq http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags/ | grep
"href=\"2.4" | cut -d\" -f2 | sort -t . -k3 -n
2.4.0/ 2.4.1/ 2.4.2/ 2.4.3/ 2.4.4/ 2.4.5/ 2.4.6/ 2.4.7/ 2.4.8/ 2.4.9/ 2.4.10/ 2.4.11/ 2.4.12/ 2.4.13/ 2.4.14/ 2.4.15/ 2.4.16/ 2.4.17/ 2.4.18/ 2.4.19/ 2.4.20/ $ But i dont think this a good idea. Just digresssing, but IMHO something like this can be handy.
