Re: SVN over http using SVNserve

Thanks Guys,
I just noticed "svn://..." works with Eclipse.

Actually, when you just start typing "svn:"...a red dot appears on the
top saying wrong url...but after you complete the whole url like
"svn://localhost/repository"..that error dot disappers....sorry for my
ignorance.

My only last concern is, can i access the repository over the internet
using the "SVN" protocol like say from some browser like IE ? I know I
can do this if I use Apache with SVN. I assume here whatever works for
"svn://" also works with "svn+ssh://" as I would be using the later
one.

I am just asking this becoz some BA's/PMs do not want to install any
client like Tortoise SVN and still want to peek and look into the
source code and they have this as a requirement.

If not,I will try to convince them or install Apache and configure
it.I do not want to use Apache becoz that would mean maintaining more
versions and modules compatibility.

Thanks again guys,
Mick
