Where to create a repository on Linux
Hey:
I've installed Subversion and want to create a repository. I'm new to Linux and
don't yet understand the purpose of all of the standard directories.
Which directory is the right place to put a repository?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Lee

I prefer /home/subversion because it will be filled in by humans, not
by daemons. As you say, it is a matter of taste.

"right" is at best a matter of convention. I use /var/svn/

Actually, /srv/svn is the most correct according to FHS:

The most "correct" place is in /var/lib/svn, according to the FHS
standard. There's really not any reason not to use the FHS standard
