Subversion hide repository path

How can I configure the subversion server to hide the full repository path from the outside world?

For example, the repository lives under /home/svn/foob开发者_如何学运维ar/ ... I want to access it via ssh as svn+ssh://user@domain.com/foobar.

Reading carefully through the official SVN documentation I have found that when accessing subversion over svn+ssh -- then a separate svnserve process is spawned for every connection. Thus the trick is to

1. Rename svnserve to svnserve.bin
2. Create a file called svnserve

3. Add the following to its contents

   #!/bin/sh
   exec /usr/bin/svnserve.bin -r /home/svn "$@"
   

Thus the wrapper will be called everytime a server instance is needed. It will in turn init the server with a new root path.

Piece of cake!

Use the --root option:

svnserve --root /home/svn

A blog post today went into some great detail about how to setup SSH access to SVN on a server.

You can use HTTP(S) protocol instead of SSH. And then, configure Apache with any virtual directory you like.
