Re: svn+ssh - can browse, cannot checkout w/ Pageant

Ok, for some reson I seem to be unable to post from Google Groups
interface (or the posting is somehow delayed) - so I'll try directly
through Gmail ... Sorry if there turn up to the three same copies of
this email :)

Ok, I think I got it finally...

If I use:

> - Add to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys:
> command="svnserve -t --tunnel-user=usr2 -r /path/myhomefolder/svnrepos/myrepo" ssh-rsa XXX..xx= usr2_at_myrepo

Then I can do a repo-browser from TortoiseSVN using the adress:
>
> svn+ssh://schooluser@sshserver.schoolserver.com/path/myhomefolder/svnrepos/myrepo
>

but since I've specifically said in the above command that
.../svnrepos/myrepo is the svn root in this case - so all the adresses
in the svn+ssh protocol become related to this level !! Since it is
also the level we're browsing, TortoiseSVN apparently deletes the
extra path/myhomefolder/svnrepos/myrepo from the URL..

That means, that if I wanted to checkout in this case, I should have
just tried to check out adress
svn+ssh://schooluser@sshserver.schoolserver.com/ directly, in order to
access .../svnrepos/myrepo - even though for the full path, the server
complained with "doesn't exist" !!

What I did now, is simply have this line in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys:

> command="svnserve -t --tunnel-user=usr2 -r /path/myhomefolder/svnrepos" ssh-rsa XXX..xx= usr2_at_myrepo

Then, I can checkout myrepo through TortoiseSVN adress:

> svn+ssh://schooluser@sshserver.schoolserver.com/myrepo

(basically, since now /path/myhomefolder/svnrepos is the root in this
case, it can be left out - and all other adresses, like that of
myrepo, are expressed relative to it in the URL)..

Boy, this took a while to understand :) Thanks !
