Using the local file system, it is now possible to import and then check out an existing project.<br />
Unlike with CVS it is not necessary to cd into the project directory, simply give the full path:<br />
# svn import /project1/ file:///home/svn/project1/trunk -m 'Initial import'<br />
# svn checkout file:///home/svn/project1<br />
The new directory "trunk" is only a convention, this is not required.<br />
Remote access with ssh<br />
No special setup is required to access the repository via ssh, simply replace file:// with<br />
svn+ssh/hostname. For example:<br />
# svn checkout svn+ssh://hostname/home/svn/project1<br />
As with the local file access, every user needs an ssh access to the server (with a local account)<br />
and also read/write access. This method might be suitable for a small group. All users could<br />
belong to a subversion group which owns the repository, for example:<br />
# groupadd subversion<br />
# groupmod -A user1 subversion<br />
# chown -R root:subversion /home/svn<br />
# chmod -R 770 /home/svn<br />
Remote access with http (apache)<br />
Remote access over http (https) is the only good solution for a larger user group. This method<br />
uses the apache authentication, not the local accounts. This is a typical but small apache<br />
configuration:<br />
LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so<br />
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so<br />
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so # Only for access control<br />
<br />
DAV svn<br />
# any "/svn/foo" URL will map to a repository /home/svn/foo<br />
SVNParentPath /home/svn<br />
AuthType Basic<br />
AuthName "Subversion repository"<br />
AuthzSVNAccessFile /etc/apache2/svn.acl<br />
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/svn-passwd<br />
Require valid-user<br />
<br />
The apache server needs full access to the repository:<br />
# chown -R www:www /home/svn<br />
Create a user with htpasswd2:<br />
# htpasswd -c /etc/svn-passwd user1 # -c creates the file<br />
Access control svn.acl example<br />
# Default it read access. "* =" would be default no access<br />
[/]<br />
* = r<br />
[groups]<br />
project1-developers = joe, jack, jane<br />
# Give write access to the developers<br />
[project1:]<br />
@project1-developers = rw<br />
