.Mac?

How do (can) I set up a subversion repository on a web server, in  
particular, .Mac?  I thought I would just be able to copy over the  
repository I wanted to make available, then access it using
svn checkout http://SERVER/PATH_TO_REPOS LOCAL_DIR, which is what I  
tried on my .Mac server space, but this is an example of the messages  
I keep getting when I try this(using fsfs):

__svn__06:01:46__BRUNOISE-TIGRE__svn checkout http://homepage.mac.com/ 
mac_vieuxnez/SVN/KeyPathTest.svn test1
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/mac_vieuxnez/SVN/KeyPathTest.svn'
svn: PROPFIND of '/mac_vieuxnez/SVN/KeyPathTest.svn': 403 Invalid  
Method (http://homepage.mac.com)

Does a web server have to have svn capabilities, or is there some  
other way I can do this?

yes, see chapter 6 of the book: http://subversion.red-bean.org

They're talking about the .Mac service, not the Mac computers.

Macs do have ssh installed by default, but svn is a port (http:// 
www.MacPort.org) thus not too difficult to install. But the .mac  
service, is a proprietary data sync system of Apple's own creation.  
It is rather unlikely that it offers public svn services. I have  
often wondered if it uses something similar to svn behind the scenes  
to accomplish it's syncs.

You can't serve a repository from .Mac. They don't offer the  
Subversion Apache modules, they don't offer svn protocol, they don't  
offer ssh access. You need to use a service that's set up to serve  
Subversion repositories. There are many such services, several of  
which are listed here:

Ashley is right, yes you could place the repository on an idisk via .mac and in turn server the mounted volume via apache or neon or some other capable webserver, but IMHO there isn't really a compelling reason to do it. 

Of course if you've gotten this far and deployed your own web server the why not just use svn in lieu of .mac? 

One thing you could use .mac for would be  a way of backing up your repository but your mileage will definitely vary.

As others have said, you won't get it working from .Mac. It's not  
like some other hosting services where you are able to configure the  
server itself (as previously stated you have to configure Apache  
modules to integrate SVN over http).

.Mac is really for basic personal webpage hosting and synchronisation  
of data between Macs, I like the idea of it but having tried it for  
the last year I won't be renewing at the end of this month since I  
don't think it offers great value.

You can map your .Mac iDisk as a drive, however. But I'm unsure as to  
whether you can then use the file:// protocol with SVN to access it  
(for example, "svn status file:///Volumes/<your_idisk_name>/path").

Perhaps if that works it would be adequate for your needs?

Yes, the Subversion modules must be installed & loaded by Apache.
