Although a static method can't access instance variables, it can access static variables. A common use of static variables is to define "constants". Examples from the Java library are Math.PI or Color.RED. They are qualified with the class name, so you know they are static. Any method, static or not, can access static variables. Instance variables can be accessed only by instance methods.
I normally use Subclipse plugin for Eclipse for SVN operations. It really makes life easy. I am a novice when it comes to performing svn operations using SVN commands. I found a very useful resource for that: HTML version of SVN red book (for subversion 1.5) Hope you find this useful :)
