This is a step-by-step guide for dummies on how to configure SVN from scratch.Setting up a Subversion - SVN service (deamon)Use YUM (or your distribution package manager, if any) to make sure. You can now access your repository via url: $ svn info svn+ssh://nassau/lt Send the public key to sysadmin or configure the authorized_keys yourself. The User is the system username used for SVN over SSH connections. You can as well use your other rsa key, but let’s not mix things up.Ĭonfigure the connection in /config: Host nassau Generate the needed pub/priv keys $ ssh_keygen -q -t rsa
In case you’re trying to do the same on a Linux client, the process is far more simple. Use the following convention, so Tortoise can save the configuration. A dialog helps you set up your repository. Their syntax is based on Windows INI files and is a subset of the syntax supported by Python's configparser module.

You will not need to connect using PuTTY, you will however need to define a new session using it.
It is open-source and available for free over the internet. Just copy the „paste ready” version - this will be used for the server configuration. SVN - Environment Setup, Subversion is a popular open-source version control tool. Save the generated private key, the public key won’t be needed.
