Install SVN Server - ajumalp/rpi-nas GitHub Wiki

• Install the subversion 1st

sudo apt-get install subversion

• Now, we need to create a project

svnadmin create /home/pi/repos/helloworld

• Let’s create a project that we’ll add to SVN

mkdir /home/pi/projects/helloworld

cd /home/pi/projects/helloworld

• create a file called main.php

sudo nano main.php

• add sample code

 <?php echo "Test message"; ?>

• Save file [hit Ctrl + X]
• Now we need to import it into svn

sudo svn import /home/pi/projects/helloworld/ file://localhost/home/pi/repos/helloworld/

• Enter a commit message and press Ctrl+X to save
• Now, we’ll need to set up the server part of it so you can access it remotely

sudo apt -y install apache2 libapache2-mod-svn

• Now let’s edit the dav_svn.conf

sudo nano /etc/apache2/mods-available/dav_svn.conf

• Add this to the bottom of the file

<Location /svn>
  DAV svn
  SVNParentPath /home/pi/repos
  SVNListParentPath On
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "Subversion Repo"
  AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd
  <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
    Require valid-user
  </LimitExcept>
 </Location>

• Quit and save the file, then restart apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

• Now we need to change the permissions of this folder

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /home/pi/repos

• Now you need to create an SVN user

sudo htpasswd -c /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd testuser

Remember only use -c the first time you add a user. If you run this with -c again it will delete existing users! This is for the first time only!

• Now you can check your repo thru a web browser http://piserver/svn/helloworld/
