Today I decided to take on the geekiest of tasks - setting up my own Subversion repository to check in files from my home directory. Normally, I use a third party Subversion service, as others can generally manage an svn instance better than oneself, however for this data, I want it to reside on my own server. On my server I executed the following commands:

<geshi>
sudo aptitude install libapache2-svn
sudo mkdir /usr/local/svn
sudo svnadmin create /usr/local/svn/home
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/local/svn
sudo htdigest /etc/apache2/user.passwd "Subversion repository" brianegge
sudoedit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/theeggeadventure.com
sudo apache2ctl configtest
sudo apache2ctl restart
</geshi>

The edit to my site file, was this addition:

<geshi>
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /usr/local/svn

AuthType Digest
AuthName "Subversion repository"
AuthUserFile "/etc/apache2/user.passwd"

Require valid-user
</Location>
</geshi>
