Setting up two Parallel svn Servers across two countries

[Patrick du Boucher <pa...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

Basically, I need to enable users in two different countries to access the
same svn repository *without* having the problem of slow and time consuming
check-in/outs. (We can't count on lightning fast connection speeds!)

I'm thinking of setting up an SVN server in one country and another in the
second country.

The problem I have is how to keep the two synchronised.
What happens when one user checks into one server. how can I have those
changes reflected in the second server?

Or is there a better solution to my problem?

Thanks so much
Patrick

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
I've a feeling that an upgrade in SVN will answer our needs.
I've actually stumbled upon WANdisco while I was searching. but it wasn't
clear to me whether this is a successful option that's been tried and
tested. (I presume there's significant cost involved and I'd want to be sure
we're getting value for money.)

Thanks for the help,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

You can look at the write-through-proxying
fonctionality<http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html#svn.serverconfig.httpd.extra.writethruproxy>,
it's a new feature of subversion 1.5. Nevertheless in this case, only the
checkout/update will be done localy, every checkin/commit must will be done
on a master server.

If this solution is not acceptable, take a look at
svk<http://svk.bestpractical.com/view/HomePage>or
WANdisco <http://www.wandisco.com/>.
