RE: Re: noob question

The closest I think one could come is by using something like SVN::Web.
Like mod_dav_svn it can be given a SVNParentPath, but it by default lists
the repositories it finds rather than giving an error. It's extremely
rudimentary
though - it presumes that any directory under the parent path is a
repository.

Perhaps mod_dav_svn (when configured using SVNParentPath) should do
something
similar, but with a better check. Even validating the content of
PATH/db/fs-type
would do.

Of course, that solution wouldn't in and of itself help svn:// or file://
users,
but file:// users could use the native tools available to them as they
already
have fs-level access.

Not being familiar with the svn:// protocol, I'm not sure how to augment it
to
do the same.

G'day Chris (and everyone else),

I think the poster's original question was how to list the repositories that
are on the server, in the case where a single SVN daemon is serving multiple
separate repositories.

AFAIK there's no way of doing that, at least not via the svn:// protocol -
I'm not sure if http:// or https:// provide some way of doing this though.

It would be quite handy to be able to do this though - currently you need to
provide the URL for each repository via some other mechanism (web site,
documet etc.) - developers can't just be given a "partial"
SVN URL (eg. svn://mysvnhost/) from which to bootstrap their working copies.

Cheers,
Peter
