svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/actiongame/code/trunk/ac/
The form looks like this:

Congratulations! You now can play the latest version of AssaultCube. But well, as there are many contributions to the source every day you won´t have the newest version for a long time. To ensure you play the latest version you have to update it manually before starting the game. To do this again a right click (ensure that you are in the directory you did the checkout before) and this time a SVN update:
Playing
To start playing execute "assaultcube.bat" (don´t use "assaultcube_release.bat"; otherwise you will mess your AC 1.0.x installation). Have fun testing it!
