svn-setup

The svn setup requires a few things on the server:

• apache http server - that is, a full web server, and port 80 open
• discusss the svn setup with the IT guys:
  • can we do it?
  • more external access - is that ok?
• some additional httpd plugins
• we want restricted access to some parts of the repo (basically the polderland directories, since some of the content there is under legal embargo)

Access methods:

• http: //-tilgang for alle (dvs anonym) - visse katalogar blokkert - berre les

• https: //-tilgang for registrerte brukarar - visse katalogar ev. blokkert for nokre brukarar, les-skriv

Users

• from the OS (such that users in a certain group is automatically included)
• from an AuthUser list/file (to allow "random" external users write access)

Find out what httpd modules are needed to support such a setup.

What:

• full package, whole repository, all of history and branches
  • full package, to preserve everything

How:

• test-conversion
• set up users and make sure everything works:
  • check-out
  • diffs
  • commits
  • commit mails
  • clients (command line, graphic, other)
  • certainly other things as well...
• write documentation for system maintainers and end users
  • administrators: how to add new users (via OS, or Auth list), access control etc.
  • users: linux, mac, windows users (Tortoisecvs > Tortoisesvn)
• real conversion, everybody changes to svn
