Configuration subversion as windows service.

1. Download windoes install package from http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=91
2. Install the windows package and change default install directory to c:/svn/
3. Create a source repository.
    > cd c:/svn/bin
    > svnadmin create "c:/svn/repos"
4. Configuration subversion
    Uncomment the following lines in the conf/svnserve.con
    anon-access = none
    auth-access = write
    password-db = passwd
    Add some users to conf/passwd file, for example:
    user1 = passwd1
    user2 = passwd2
5. Register subversion as windows service.
    > sc create svnserver binpath= "c:/svn/bin/svnserve.exe --service -r c:/svn/repos" depend= Tcpip start=auto
    If cannot start the svnserver automatic, run the following command.
    > net start svnserver
6. Create a project in repository.
    > set SVN_EDITOR=c:/windows/system32/notepad.exe
    > svn mkdir svn://localhost/myproject

7. It's conventional to have /trunk, /branches, and /tags subdirectories for each project.

> svn mkdir svn://localhost/myproject/trunk

> svn mkdir svn://localhost/myproject/branches

> svn mkdir svn://localhost/myproject/tags

 

8. Test. Install a svn client, e.g. TortoiseSVN, and check out myproject that we created.
   Here, use svn ://<servername>/myproject/ for the repository URL.
