Subversion Howto
TortoiseSVN manual Nightly build of the manual (especially chapter 5 + are interesting for using TortoiseSVN)
Create a new repository:
In W:\websites\Admin\subs\ make a new directory with the project name (eg. test) Right click on test and choose 'create repository here'
This creates a directory with conf/, db/, hooks/, locks/, format and README.txt You can then surf to http://wip.tripnet.int/svn/test/ to see the repo in the browser. (it will be empty).
The URL http://wip.tripnet.int/svn/test works because of a server side directive which specifies that Location.
Then import the standard structure. Find the directory '0 Naam van opdracht' and right click on it. Choose TortoiseSVN -> Import... and put in the url of the repository (http://wip.tripnet.int/svn/test/). This creates revision 1.
To work with the repository you need to check out the repository to your working copy.
Making a working copy:
make a directory wip on your local hd, eg. w:\websites\Admin\workingcopy
Inside that directory make a directory with the same name as the project you will check out into it, eg:
w:\websites\Admin\workingcopy
right click on the directory and choose 'SVN Checkout...'
In the URL of repository put the location of the repository (http://wip.tripnet.int/svn/test/) and make sure it goes to the right destination URL.
Then in d:\wip\test\ you will find the files and directories of '0 Naam van opdracht'. This is where you do all your work!
Adding files to the repository:
In the working copy, create a new file. Right click on the file, TortoiseSVN -> Add.
You can add files by copying them into the directory as well: either select all the files and right-click-drag them in and then choose 'SVN Add files to this WC', or normally drag them in, select them in the working copy and then right click, TortoiseSVN -> Add.
Server Side:
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav_svn.conf
<Location /svn> DAV svn SVNParentPath /export/home/wip/websites/Admin/subs/ </Location>
This will enable SVN on the server. Adding the following inside the <Location> tags above allows for PAM authentication using libapache-mod-auth-pam
# Added for PAM authentication AuthType Basic # To silence error msg in /var/log/*error.log AuthUserFile /dev/null # AuthPAM_FallThrough off AuthName "SubversionRepository" AuthPAM_Enabled on require valid-user require group designers # Required to get mod_auth_pam working in apache > 2.0 AuthBasicAuthoritative off <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT> Satisfy all </LimitExcept>
You also need to add the user www-data to the group shadow: adduser www-data shadow
