Installing
SVN on QNAP
ssh into
the QNAP NAS with the admin account.
ssh
admin@ipaddress
on the
QNAP then install SVN via ipkg
ipkg
update
ipkg
install svn
To
determine the hard drive / volume you want to save the repository on:
df
will
show something like:
/share/HDA_DATA
I
decided to create a repository svn and then a project folder within
that.
mkdir
/share/HDA_DATA/svn/projectA
and then
svnadmin
create /share/HDA_DATA/svn/projectA
and edit
the config files to password protect write
vi
/share/HDA_DATA/svn/projectA/conf/svnserve.conf
[general]
###
These options control access to the repository for
unauthenticated
### and authenticated users. Valid values
are "write", "read",
### and "none".
The sample settings below are the defaults.
anon-access =
read
auth-access = write
### The password-db option controls
the location of the password
### database file. Unless you
specify a path starting with a /,
### the file's location is
relative to the directory containing
### this configuration
file.
### If SASL is enabled (see below), this file will NOT be
used.
### Uncomment the line below to use the default password
file.
password-db = passwdand
then edit the passwd file[users]username
= passwordand
then start the SVN server withsvnserve
-d --listen-port=3690
On Ubuntu I installed the following to
enable command line and Nautilus / Gedit integration
sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus
rabbitvcs-gedit
sudo apt-get install subversion
To test the repository I used RabbitVCS
SVN via Nautilus, Repository browser and then entered the url:
svn://ipaddress:3690/share/HDA_DATA/svn/projectA/
