trac svn access

Hi all!

I have a trac instance setup that is being served with apache and mod_wsgi.

I have an svn repo setup on the same machine and trac is able to browse it.

Now I would like to set it up so my developers can have access to the svn
repo from their local machines.

What is the best way to achieve this without destroying my mod_wsgi config?

Also, is there some way for users to access the svn repo from the browser
and add files to it?

Cheers!

Ben

mod_dav_svn, svn+ssh://, file:/// -- it depends on what you want.

mod_dav_svn (see e.g. http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Subversion), but if
you want it visible from big bad internet you may have to deal with
authentication, encrypting the passwords, and all that.

Any way to share the password store with the one trac is currently using?

I don't know if there's a concise guide. Svn supports a bunch of
different access methods (urls), see subversion book.

The easiest is direct disk access: file:///. You need the directory with
svn repos mounted on local machine(s) -- via nfs, samba, or whatever.

Access over ssh: if you can ssh to a machine that has svn repos mounted,
you can use svn+ssh url.

Access over http/https: mod_dav_svn. Google will find plenty of howtos
I'm sure.

Apache can use the same .htpasswd file I'm sure.

With ssh you have to share login passwords with trac and mod_dav_svn.
Ldap will do that.

file:/// doesn't care.

It is always a good idea to give plenty of background information. For example are you on windoze or *nix?

If you are already serving Trac over http(s) then adding mod_dav_svn to serve your subversion repos should not be that difficult (I do it from a windoze server). The subversion book is a good place to start: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html

If you let apache handle the authentication then both Trac and svn can pick up the user data from that and you have one source of credentials (we use LDAP but that depends if you have e.g. Active Directory in your corporate (?) environment).

I hope that helps,
