SvnServe - LocalService account permissions question
I've been running SvnServe 1.4.3 as a service on a Windows 2003 box and
I have been wanting to switch the account it runs under to be
"LocalService"...
I plan to do this when I upgrade to 1.4.4.
I have a question about required account permissions.
I found some information in the following
http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-serversetup.html
This document states the following:
"Note that you would have to give the Local Service account appropriate
rights to both Subversion and your repositories, as well as any
applications which are used by hook scripts."
Does anyone have a quick summary of aforementioned "appropriate" rights
required for setup of the Local service account?
Does it require "Full Control" in the subversion repository directories?
... or something a bit less?
Does it require "Read", "Read & Execute" and "List Folder contents" in
the Subversion program directories?... or something a bit less (or more).
Yes, I know I can guess and experiment, but it would be nice to hear
from someone in the know, who has already done this.

I can't give you a full answer, but I can say that I fell foul of this
one when I was trying to set Subversion up as a service under Windows.
Basically it needs to be able to execute svn and to read from and write
to the repository.
There may be other things, but they were the ones I found. Once I'd
done that it worked OK.

Again, this sounds like an unnecessarily complicated and fragile
setup. Just use a single repository, hosted from a location that's
available to all developers and to the live production server. Maybe
that means you should host it on the live production server itself,
since that's theoretically always available. Develop in trunk, and
when you have things you want to move to production, copy the trunk
to a new branch. Or, merge from trunk to an always-present
"production" branch. Or something.

I have thought about that as well...the way I currently have it set up is
on the dev box, when I commit changes from my local development directory,
using the post commit hooks...it updates the dev box's live directory.
What i want to be able to do is when i am happy with the change I
made...promote them to he production server. I could just have the live
directory on the production server be a check out of the repository on the
dev box... My only concern is that if my partner has to work on something
and for whatever reason, my dev box is not available (it's located in my
home office and we have been known to lose internet access due to storms
from time to time) that he be able to check out the latest version (or
update to the latest version) from the live repository...hence the 2
repositories....just a little redundancy. If there is a way to update the
production repository from the live directory on dev while still having the
live directory on dev as a checked directory from the dev repository...that
would be ideal.

Why do you want to have two repositories?
I recommend you use separate repositories only for concepts which
really are separate from one another. For example, I have a
repository for my software source code, and another repository for my
music.
I recommend you have just a single repository, served from a machine
that's accessible to both your live and dev environments -- which
could be either the live or dev machine, or a third machine,
depending on your setup. You can manage the separate dev and live
environments by making one of these a branch.

isn't that overkill? Plus you are then moving over changes to you
production box that may not be ready for prime time just yet...

RE: Promotion system (for lack of

I was asked this same type of question today from a developer - my
suggestion was to create a repository on your local machine for the
development work and then export it to the live repository. Not sure if
that works or not - maybe exporting to another file then checking it into
the live depository...?
