Setting up SVN in Apache over SSL

22Apr08

I find this particular page is very helpful: http://wiki.freaks-unidos.net/Apache2%20SSL%20and%20Subversion%20in%20Debian

Basically you need to:

1. Install Apache and openSSL if you have not done so.
2. Create RSA key and secure it
3. Create or copy a new site configuration file and enable it
4. Enable SSL module
5. Install subversion, subversion-tools and libapache2-svn
6. Create the new repo and change owner to www-data or just change owner if you already have a repo previously.
7. Configure site definition file to include the new repo
8. Create password file
9. Restart Apache and test.

Visit the site for full detail.
