Create SVN Home

-Create SVN home

$ sudo mkdir /opt/svn 
$ cd /opt/svn 
$ sudo mkdir myproject 
$ sudo chown -R www-data myproject 
$ sudo chgrp -R subversion myproject 
$ sudo chmod -R g+rws myproject 

-Create repository

$ sudo svnadmin create /home/svn/myproject 

or

$sudo svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /home/svn/myproject 

-to use WebDAV, repeat the chmod -R g+rws myproject command again as because svnadmin will create directories and files without group write access.


Access via WebDAV protocol (http://)

-Install libapache2-svn

$ sudo apt-get install libapache2-svn 
...
Enabling module dav.
Enabling module dav_svn.
Run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' to activate new configuration!

-Edit /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav_svn.conf file

<Location /svn>
    DAV svn
    SVNPath /opt/svn/
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "lckymn.com subversion repository"
    AuthUserFile /etc/subversion/.passwd
    <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
        Require valid-user
    </LimitExcept>
</Location>

-To limit any connection to the SVN-Server (private SVN), remove the lines <LimitExcept ...> and </LimitExcept>.

<Location /svn>
    DAV svn
    SVNPath /opt/svn/
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "lckymn.com subversion repository"
