Subversion on Strato V-PowerServer
Heine —Wed, 2007/02/21 - 10:41
Having internet accessible repositories is great for code backups, collaboration and deployment of staging servers. Here's a quick guide on getting svnserve running on a Strato V-PowerServer.
First, install subversion:
# yast -i subversion
Add the user and group svnserv needs:
# groupadd svn
# useradd -r -g svn svn
# useradd -r -g svn svn
Create a repository (in the following commands indicated with [name]) and make sure svnserve can read / write it:
# mkdir -p /srv/svn/repos
# svnadmin create /srv/svn/repos/[name]
# chown -R svn:svn /srv/svn/repos/[name]
# svnadmin create /srv/svn/repos/[name]
# chown -R svn:svn /srv/svn/repos/[name]
Open /etc/sysconfig/svnserve and make sure it reads:
SVNSERVE_OPTIONS="-d -r /srv/svn/repos"
Open /srv/svn/repos/[name]/conf/svnserve to configure access to the repository:
[general]
# Anonymous users have no access. (use read for read access).
anon-access = none
# Authenticated users in passwd can read and write to the repository.
auth-access = write
password-db = passwd
realm = repository [name]
# Anonymous users have no access. (use read for read access).
anon-access = none
# Authenticated users in passwd can read and write to the repository.
auth-access = write
password-db = passwd
realm = repository [name]
Create /srv/svn/repos/[name]/conf/passwd:
[users]
username = password
username = password
Start the server:
# /etc/init.d/svnserv start
You can now access the repository via svn://example.com/[name], eg:
# svn co svn://example.com/[name]
