Creating multiple svn repos on single SVN Server

I got SVN Server setup for Project A which is all good. I now need to setup ano开发者_StackOverflow社区ther repository in the same server for Project B.

Any guidelines please?

Creating a sub-folder as Arpit suggests is definitely not the solution you're looking for, since both projects would be part of a single SVN repository, hence, sharing revision numbers.

It is definitely possible to have several repositories in a single server, however there are many ways to do it depending on your setup.

First you might want to study these documents to get your concepts straight.

In a Windows Setup, for example, VisualSVN, through its managing tool, VisualSVN Server Manager, allows you to easily create and manage repositories in a straightforward way.

It is important that you undrstand the difference between repository as a general concept, and repository as a technical term in SVN. The cited documentation will assit you in this.

If you are using Apache, you can support multiple repositories easily with SVNParentPath configuration. See http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html#svn.serverconfig.httpd.basic for details.

You have installed a server and setup a project in it, I believe in the following manner:

http://svn.exampel.com/repos/
|
|- ProjectA 
   |
   |- branches
   |- tags
   |- trunk

To add another repository in the same server, just go to the root directory and create another folder structure like this:

http://svn.exampel.com/repos/
|
|- ProjectA 
   |
   |- branches
   |- tags
   |- trunk
|
|- ProjectB
   |
   |- branches
   |- tags
   |- trunk

Simple!. There is no other configuration invoved and you can start using them as seperate repositories. This is called a Multi-Repisotory Layout.

NOTE: The revision number will be shared with both of these, i.e., the revision number is for a complete tree and there will be a unified revision number for both the projects
