Accessing Your Subversion Repository

From OCS Support Wiki

Introduction

This guide will show you how to access your Subversion repository.

Web-based Method

The easiest way to access your Subversion repository is to use the web-based method. In that case, your Subversion URL is:

http://svn.yoursite.com/svn/repo

In the above example, replace svn.yoursite.com with the subdomain of your Subversion / Trac account that you setup. Replace repo with the name of the Subversion repository you created.

You will be prompted for a username and password unless you setup anonymous read access when you created the repository. Enter it to proceed. Remember that additional users you add will have to use the POP3/FTP password shown in the control panel for your Subversion account, not just the username. You can also simply use your username and password that you provided to us to setup your Subversion / Trac account.

SVN+SSH Method

To access the repository via SVN+SSH, use the following URL:

svn+ssh://user@svn.yoursite.com/home/user/svn/repo

Replace user with your Subversion / Trac account username, replace svn.yoursite.com with your Subversion / Trac account subdomain, and replace repo with the name of your Subversion repository.

You can also use the --username switch on the command line version of Subversion to specify the user, if it is not the same as the Subversion / Trac account user (for example if you are using an additional user account that you setup). In either case though, you will be prompted for both the password of the SSH account (which is your Subversion / Trac master account username) and the Subversion username and password.
