* Subversion Server Notes
* -----------------------
*
* If you intend to run a server, a repository needs to be created using
* svnadmin (see man svnadmin) or the following command to create it in
* /var/svn:
*
* emerge --config =dev-util/subversion-1.4.6
*
* Subversion has multiple server types, take your pick:
*
* - svn over ssh:
* 1. Fix the repository permissions:
* groupadd svnusers
* chown -R root:svnusers /var/svn/repos/
* chmod -R g-w /var/svn/repos
* chmod -R g+rw /var/svn/repos/db
* chmod -R g+rw /var/svn/repos/locks
* 2. create an svnserve wrapper in /usr/local/bin to set the umask you
* want, for example:
* #!/bin/bash
* . /etc/conf.d/svnserve
* umask 002
* exec /usr/bin/svnserve ${SVNSERVE_OPTS} "$@"
*
* - http-based server:
* 1. edit /etc/conf.d/apache2 to include both "-D DAV" and "-D SVN"
* 2. create an htpasswd file:
* htpasswd2 -m -c /var/svn/conf/svnusers USERNAME
*
* If you intend to use svn-hot-backup, you can specify the number of
* backups to keep per repository by specifying an environment variable.
* If you want to keep e.g. 2 backups, do the following:
* echo '# hot-backup: Keep that many repository backups around' > /etc/env.d/80subversion
* echo 'SVN_HOTBACKUP_NUM_BACKUPS=2' >> /etc/env.d/80subversion
