Created my 1st subversion on my web space using the svn+ssh
protocol
along the lines of the PragProg book.
I used this scheme,
because I could get started w/o any admin intervention.
It also behaves fairly safe.
Alright, something on the background:
My web space provider gives me UNIX shell access via ssh.
The svnadmin create ... got executed locally on the machine,
where the repository lives,
afterwards I followed chapter 5 accessing a repository
, section on svn+ssh
,
you find a free extract of that
book here.
Because of the ssh detail
there is a tiny obstacle to overcome,
until I will be able to share this repository with co-workers.
My ISP employs somebody incredibly helpful to me,
and that guy actually managed to run another svnserver,
just dedicated to me,
fully configurable by myself,
on a fixed port.
I am overwhelmed.
Q: What do I pay them for that service?
A: They regard it as included in my package.
