svnserve on a USB? Any luck?
Has anyone had any luck with getting svnserve to run on a USB drive?
I'm currently keeping my repo on the drive and accessing it with the
file:/// protocol. I'd like to see if I can get svnserve to run.

Yeah, I'm starting to think that keeping with the file:/// protocol is
just the best way for my situation.

it should work just fine.
are you the only developer using the repo? if so, whats the need to
add more overhead of a server? just keep using file:// in that
context

Yes, me. It works fine. I've set up svnserve to run in inetd mode
in case it holds files in the repository open in daemon mode. The
reason I did this is because I use VMWare images and it seemed the
simplest way to share the repository to a virtual machine.
One thing you might want to be careful of is that most USB drives are
preformatted with FAT32 which may not be the ideal file system for a
Subversion repository. I reformatted my drive with HFS+ (I'm a Mac
user) before creating the repository.
