I need to provide svn service to many small groups of students.
I'am looking for a tool that would help industrialize managment of
repositories.
I don't want to issue hundreds of "svn create", "vi authz" , edit ssh
keys
for svn+ssh access etc ...
Are there such tools already existing ?
Subversion Edge(http://www.open.collab.net/go/csvne2_r2a/) might fit your
bill.
good point !
I've installed and run it, looks good.
but now I need to find a way to link my ldap users to svn roles/authz , I
still can't find how to do that wihout creating csvn local accounts for all
my users :-( ... !?
Unless you can guarantee that they will not use Linux or UNIX based
clients, don't even consider this. The problem is that the Linux and
UNIX clients, by default, continue to store passwords in clear text.
They whinge about it now before storing it, but it's still an issue.
Is there any reason you use 'svn' access, rather than HTTPS? The
mod_dav_svn module works well, even though I detest the clear text
password problem.
I need my users to be able to work with svn repos both from unix shell
command "svn" or through GUI clients (web browser, eclipse, tortoise ...)
For web (http) acces, it looks good now, indeed if I set ldap users
login name in the global authZ (file edit from the admin collabnet
.../editAuthorization) it works fine .
Now, is collabnet solution able to serve tradition unix shell comand
line clients ? is there a svnserve server behind it or is apache able to
serve those clients using svn protocol too ?
There remains no good GUI or published toolkit for svn+ssh access
configuration. This is one of Subversion's profound deficits, combined
with the password issues with the Linux/UNIX clients. Various
companies and groups have internal kits, including Sourceforge, but
I've never seen their tools published.
Too bad indeed that there is no toolkit for svn+ssh :-(
Can I start aside collabnet (great and easy HTTP interface) a svnserve
serving the same repostories ?
If my unix collabnet server does know and authenticate my ldap users
(with pam_ldap, nss etc ...)
wouldn't they be able to connect to svnserve with their ldap password !?
