Subversion and Remote User

[Scott Purcell <sp...@vertisinc.com>]

Win xp

Subversion 1.3.0

 

I have a working "repository" on a box at home. I have been able to
import projects into the repository, and work on them "command-line"
from the same box where it lives.

 

Now ... I want to try and access this repository from my other computer,
or from work.  In the Subversion PDF book, I am not seeing where or how
this is accomplished. I would think that credentials would come into
play here. Also, I guess there is no command line remotely, so on a PC,
I would have to assume that all front end-work is done with the
TourtoiseSVN? 

 

If someone could give me pages to reference this, or ideas it would be
appreciated.

 

Thanks,

This has nothing to do with what SVN client you're using and
everything to do with your access method.  There are 5 possible
protocols (ok, really 3 since 2 are variations on another pair) for
accessing the repository:

file://
svn://
svn+ssh://
http://
https://

All but file:// work across a network (by design/definition), so as
long as you have a route to the remote host and the right ports open,
you can use any SVN client to access it remotely.  And you can access
a single repository with any of these methods assuming the server is
configured for it.  I thought this was covered pretty well chapter 6.

Chapter 6 of The Book. 
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.multimethod.html
explains how you can access the repository with multiple schemes.
