Setup an SVN Server?

Question

Does anybody know how to setup a basic SVN server on my windows pc? I want to create an SVN repository to store the code for my home projects I\'ve got lined up.

Anyone

Answer 1

I use VisualSVN on my Windows 2008 server and it works great. I then use TortoiseSVN on my client machines. The installation is painless and you should be up and running in no time.

Answer 2

I would also Check out Assembla. Online hosting for both SVN and Git. I have used both VisualSVN and Assembla for personal projects.

Answer 3

Check Beanstalk it's not really an answer to the question you asked, but it might save you a lot of trouble. You could also check the VM marketplace, there are many virtual machines that would get you up and running super fast.

Here's also a very nice one called PMRepo, it includes Trac, Subversion, and Hudson in one VM.

Answer 4

I would also recommend Visual SVN if you like to get SVN installed on your Windows PC. There is a nice tutorial that describes installation and configuration process.

However think twice before hosting your product locally as that isn't the best option.
