Here is a quick guide for setting up a basic svn server on a linux platform. If you are looking for a detailed configuration, please refer to the manual of svn.
- yum -y intall subversion #install svn
- svnadmin create /xx/svn_repository/plancky_code #create a repository
- cd /xx/svn_reposity/plancky_code and then modify server.conf, passwd # add user and password
- vim server.conf and uncomment "password-db = passwd"
- vim passwd and add an item "username=password"
- svnserve -d -r /xx/svn_repository/plancky_code # start svn server
- svn import /xx/plancky svn://localhost/plancky_code -m initial import --username username --password password #import plancky to repository
- svn co svn://localhost/plancky_code --username username --password password #check out code from repository
- ERROR: If meeting Error"SVN: could not use external editor to fetch log message", we need to add a SVN_EDITOR to bash configuration
- vim ~/.bash_profile
- export SVN_EDITOR="/usr/bin/vim"
- reopen the terminal to load the bash configuration
