Subversion is an open-source version control system that is widely used by developers to manage and track changes to software projects. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Subversion on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before you start, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
It is always a good idea to update your system to ensure that you have the latest software packages and security updates. Use the following command to update your system:
sudo dnf update -y
In order to install Subversion, you need to first install its dependencies. Run the following command to install the Subversion dependencies:
sudo dnf install -y subversion httpd mod_dav_svn
The above command will install the Subversion packages and their dependencies.
Once Subversion and its dependencies are installed, you need to configure it. First, create a directory to store the Subversion repositories:
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/svn
Then, set the ownership and permissions of the directory:
sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/svn
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/svn
Next, create a new Subversion repository:
sudo svnadmin create /var/www/svn/myrepo
Finally, configure Apache to serve the Subversion repositories. Create a new Apache configuration file called svn.conf
:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/svn.conf
Add the following content to the file:
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /var/www/svn/
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /etc/svn-users
Require valid-user
</Location>
Save and close the file.
Create a file called svn-users
to store the Subversion user credentials:
sudo htpasswd -c /etc/svn-users myuser
Replace myuser
with your desired username.
Restart Apache to activate the changes:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
You can now access the Subversion repository using your web browser or an SVN client. Open your web browser and enter the following URL:
http://<your-ip-address>/svn/myrepo
Replace <your-ip-address>
with the IP address of your Fedora CoreOS Latest machine.
You will be prompted to enter your Subversion username and password that you created in Step 3.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install and configure Subversion on Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can now use Subversion to manage and track changes to your software projects.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
