aptitude install libapache2-svn
aptitude install subversion
2. copy dav config to XAMP config
mv /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dav_svn.conf /opt/lampp/etc/
note : /opt = location where you extracted XAMP to ;for example,
"tar xvfz xamp-x.x.x.tar.gz -C /opt"
3. edit dav_svn.conf by adding the following configuration
DAV SVN
SVNPath $home/svn/
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthUserFile etc/svn-password.pass
require valid-user
4. create repository exactly to what you declared in dav_svn.conf
cd $home
svnadmin create svn
5. create project directory under repository
svn mkdir file:///home//svn/
cd $home/svn
mkdir --> empty directory and nothing but help you recognize the referent name linked to
6. Here, we are ready to use SVN. An example would show below
- To load original files into SVN repository
cd /opt/lampp/htdocs/myweb
svn import file:///home//svn/
- To use it, we simply check them out from SVN repository like this
mkdir /opt/lampp/htdocs/myweb_mimic
cd /opt/lamp/htdocs/myweb_mimic
svn checkout file:///home//svn/
7. Now that you once did setting up SVN, you'd better keen with it by
- checkin
- checkout
- commit
- merge
- reverse
so on and so forth.
Finally, this may be the most simple setting-up guide by using "file:///" protocol. I wish to have a chance to show you how to SVN on "http://" protocol as well
