At SilverStripers I have been working on setting up SVNs for 100 times, every two weeks I am setting up a new SVN repo, sometimes I have to install SVNAdmin and start from the scratch. Then there comes Capistrano for deployments, etc. etc.
Though that it will be good to maintain a blog post on how to set up SVN as then I can refer to it anytime I need, and thought it will be useful for others if I blog it here. Following are the steps I use.
Installing a SVN admin
this is a good source (http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html)
I mainly use Fedora and Debian
If it is Fedora
$ yum install subversion
If it is Debian
$ apt-get install subversion
Alright I've got the SVNAdmin now.
1. Creating a repository
svnadmin create /repo
2. Create users
vi /repo/conf/svnserve.conf
configure the svn ( these are some basics )
anon-access = none
auth-access = write
password-db = passwd
add the password file
vi /repo/conf/passwd
In that file add the users
username = password
3. Start SVN
svnserve -d
