It is also possible to use the xinetd service to run Subversion on an
as-needed basis, so it does not have to run continuously. As soon as
someone makes a request for SVN service, xinetd looks in its configuration
files to know how to start Subversion for you. I got this to work by
reading the manpage and then creating a configuration file for svn by
starting from one for CVS that was already provided by my distribution.
