  • Edit the httpd directives for svn and DAV cp /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf.orig vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf

[root@sasha ~]# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf | egrep -v -e ^\# -e ^\$
LoadModule dav_svn_module     modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module   modules/mod_authz_svn.so
Location /repos

[root@sasha ~]# cat /var/svn/conf/authz
[/]
* =

  • Create httpd password for user(s) htpasswd -c /var/svn/conf/passwd jtanner

  • Edit websvn’s config.php to allow authorized access and directory location cp /etc/websvn/config.php /etc/websvn/config.php.orig vi /etc/websvn/config.php

[root@sasha conf.d]# cat /etc/websvn/config.php | egrep -v -e ^$ -e ^\/
?php
$config-addRepository('svn test repo', 'file:///var/svn/repos/test');
$config-setTemplatePath($locwebsvnreal/templates/calm/);
$config-useMultiViews();
$config-addInlineMimeType(text/plain);
$config-setMinDownloadLevel(2);
$config-useGeshi();
set_time_limit(0);
$config-expandTabsBy(8);

[root@sasha conf.d]# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/websvn.conf
Alias /websvn /usr/share/websvn/

Directory /usr/share/websvn/

Creating a repo

svnadmin create /var/svn/repos/test

Deleting a repo

There is no command to delete a repository. Just delete the directory created by svnadmin manually … rm -rf /var/svn/repos/reponame

Importing code

  • Initial import mkdir -p /home/jtanner/code/testprog1 touch home/jtanner/code/testprog1/1 touch home/jtanner/code/testprog1/2 touch home/jtanner/code/testprog1/3 svn import –username jtanner –password ###### testprog1 file:///var/svn/repos/test/testprog1 -m Initial import

  • Listing files svn list file:///var/svn/repos/test svn list file:///var/svn/repos/test/testprog1

  • Adding all new files/directories svn add –force testprog1/*

  • Committing changes svn status testprog1 svn ci testprog1

Checking out code

  • file method svn co file:///var/svn/repos/test/testprog testprog1
  • http method URL path is dictated by Location directive in /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf svn co http://localhost/repos/test/testprog1 testprog1

Eclipse Integration

yum -y install eclipse-subclipse eclipse-epic websvn mod_dav_svn
