simple example of SVN use for specification changes

[Jos van den Oever <jos@vandenoever.info>]

Hello all,

You must be wondering what the email deluge of yesterday was all about.
I added the past versions of the ODF specification to the SVN repository. This 
resulted in more than 50 emails, because each SVN commit leads to an SVN 
commit.

Now I've added a first branch for a JIRA issue to SVN.
I've chosen a simple issue:
  https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-3755

This issue requires only a text change to two words. So the SVN diff does not 
add a lot to this issue, but it is a nice and simple example.

To create the patch you can use the tool 'odftc' that is available from here:
  https://gitlab.com/odfplugfest/odfhistory/blob/master/odftc/odftc

Then, in an empty directory, I ran these commands:

==
  odftc init
  cd office
  odftc create v1.2 3755
  vi v1.2/OpenDocument-v1.2-part1/content.xml
  git commit -a -m 'Change rotate-angle to skew-angle in the decription of 
skewX and skewY.'
  git svn dcommit
==

Now the change can be seen at this link:
  http://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/browse/wsvn/office/?op=comp&compare%5B%5D=%2Fbranches%2Fv1.2&compare%5B%5D=%2Fbranches%2Fv1.2_OFFICE-3755

This is a long link, but to adapt it for other issues of v1.2, only the issue 
number needs to be changed. I added this link to the issue itself.

Note that I edited the specification content.xml with a text editor. It is also 
possible to use LibreOffice, OpenOffice, WebODF or OpenExchange and then create a 
diff on the .odt files with OdfHistory. For now, I suggest to use simple text 
editors.

Best regards,
