No, UNLESS you want to run a subversion server on the same PC, then
installing Subversion will allow you to run SVNSERVE - a small
standalone server that doesn't need Apache. It listens directly on port
3690 and you tell it which folder contains the repository.

For standalone development, you can use file:/// to tell Tortoise where
the repository is but if you install a server, then you can access it
from anywhere.

Works a treat - if you look around the web for an older version of
FireDaemon (it used to be available in a non-time-limited form) you can
make it start SVNSERVE as a WinXP service so it's just there all the
time.

Cheers
Giovanni
