RE: Running Subversion under IIS?

Hi,

Sorry for that -- I know better of course, having been on these lists for nearly 2 years. I did of course mean to say that the server-side of ra_dav depends heavily on the Apache API's.

greetings,

--Tim

Subversion doesn't depend on Apache for providing server services.
Subversion *can use* Apache, however.

One of Subversion's two Repository Access (RA) layers uses Apache.
That layer is called ra_dav. The other one, ra_svn, uses a standalone
server (svnserve) that has no relation to Apache. This is what the
"svn://" URLs are about.

I doubt any of this will help Sergey with IIS, I just wanted to
correct the misimpression.
