Web access to repository
Hi,
One of the teams here would like to publish their repository. We have already an Internet and Intranet server so that would be the ideal place. However, that is not the Subversion server.
Can I use ViewVC to access a repository that is not on the same server? Is there any other tool I can use? Any other ideas or suggestions?
The SVN Server is a RHEL4 with SVN 1.6.9. The Internet/intranet server is a CentOS 5.4 with Apache 2.2.13 (I think)
Thanks

Hi,
you could use WebSVN (http://www.websvn.info) to display the contents of the
repository. There you can specify the http-URL to the Repository as basis.

If ViewVC require direct access to repository, you could use server proxy
option in apache (mod_proxy), redirecting a virtualhost (viewvc.yourdomain.com
for example) to a subversion server.

He's talking about Subversion 1.6. Please see:

As I said I still don't know if they will be happy with just HEAD. But if they're not, are you talking about Subversion 1.6 or WebDAV 1.6? If the latter, how do I find out? The status page for my Apache server says
Server Version: Apache/2.2.13 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.13 OpenSSL/0.9.7a DAV/2 PHP/5.2.9 SVN/1.6.9

As I said I still don't know if they will be happy with just HEAD. But if they're not, are you talking about Subversion 1.6 or WebDAV 1.6? If the latter, how do I find out? The status page for my Apache server says

And in 1.6, you can also see historical versions through WebDAV, too.

Oh, man, if you just want HEAD, yeah, just use WebDAV. Maybe even use
mod_proxy so it looks like folks can browsing on your main server when the
real data is coming from the Subversion server.

Thanks Michael, I would certainly look into it then. We already user ViewVC internally. Is it possible to rescrit it to just use HEAD? This may be a requirement. I don't know yet but it oculd be something they would want. Worse comes to worse I can always use plain WebDAV.

ViewVC has unofficial/experimental support for displaying remote
repositories. You can see/use an example of this in action here:
http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/viewvc
(The 'viewvc' project repository lives over on viewvc.tigris.org.)
