I am a rookie on Linux on svn in particular. Thus my question, what
would be that command, considering:
- the \ in Windows.
- the fact that svn needs to know where the repository is
- 192.168.0.35 is the IP of the local machine, to which I want to
checkout and "workingcopy" the folder to which checkout
- 192.168.0.38 the IP of the machine containing the repository in
home/svn/myproject
1) Assuming I use windows commandline: I move to the folder of the
working copy:
------------------------------
"cd workingcopy"
------------------------------
2) I connect to the SVN on the remote machine
------------------------------
svn co svn+ssh://ben3@192.168.0.38/home/svn/myproject
------------------------------
It asks for authetication, I enter the credentials.
3) I run the svn command being already in the folder "workingcopy":
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"svn checkout svn+ssh://ben3@192.168.0.35"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4) It now should ask me for the credentials and checkout to that folder
Would be nice, if someone could validate the steps and commands of how
to connect remotely to the svn and of how to checkout to the local
windows machine.
Thx,
Ben
