Subversion
How to use svn via ssh
Subversion 1.4.3(latest version) is installed in /usr/bin.
SVN provides multiple configuration options to different users requirements. Here is an example of how I use it currently and suggest some readings if you have different requirements.
I am currently using "svn+ssh" to manage the repository.
Login to coutsound.ucsd.edu
Step1: Create dir and repository
$>cd ~/temp $>mkdir project1 $>cd project1 $>svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs ~/temp/project1
Step2: Import Source Code
$> svn import -m "initial import" </path/to/source/tree> file:///home/sliu/temp/project1
Step3: Check out a work directory from a remote machine
An svn client must be installed in the remote machine. (Please use the latest version.) [feng@mystere ]$ svn co svn+ssh://sliu@coutsound.ucsd.edu/home/sliu/temp/project1 Password: Password: A project1/app-rc.h A project1/app-rd.h A project1/rbudp1.tcl Checked out revision 1. [feng@mystere ]$ ls project1
I am using svn to maintain multiple copies of my code at multiple hosts, so the svn+ssh style is sufficient for me. If you have other requirements, svn provides additional options which you can refer to http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn-book.html#svn.serverconfig.multimethod
