Run SVN repositories under IIS

Question

How to setup IIS 7.0 to serve SVN repositories?

First of all I need to make possible remote users to checkout and web-based viewing isn't really necessary.

I tried to setup WebSVN but got no success: can't set parent folder for a number of repositories, can't switch off anonymous access, can't link non-anonymous access and access list.

Are there others products for SVN under IIS? Or it's better to learn how to setup WebSVN properly?

Answer 1

There are no server modules for IIS, you can't serve an SVN repository directly from IIS.

Serve a subversion repository through Apache, the built in svnserve, or proxy it via ssh.

Answer 2

There is a commercial solution available named SVNIsapi . But I have no idea how well it works because it's too expensive for me to even try out.

But why insist on using IIS? Just install the VisualSVN server , then configure WebSVN with that - WebSVN also works well with Apache.

Answer 3

Do you really need IIS or will Apache work out ok? Visual SVN Server is a great SVN host and installer for Windows.

有一个名为RocketSVN的免费服务器，它已经没有官方支持了。
