1: Delete It !
If a chunk of code comment or class is not used, don’t comment it out, just delete it.

2: Write clear code.
 “make sure you document code that’s hard to understand”. Question: why is the code hard to understand?

3: Comment
Comments can indeed be useful but mostly as a summary of action

4: Don’t Repeat Yourself
Duplication is bad. If you have more than 4-5 lines of code that do the same thing in a single class, refactor to remove duplication.

If you need to access SVN remotely, by default it runs on port TCP port 3690, so you need to make sure it is open in your firewall etc.
