if your working environment is not able to guarantee being online, i'd strongly
recommend to use a subversion hosting provider. all those that i have tried
are reliable, efficient, extremely affordable (some more than others) and
easy to use. it will save you a lot of work and headaches. besides, for that
price or perhaps a bit more, they'll offer a wide range of additional services.
you can find a list of subversion hosting providers at the subversion project
home page, links section. you'll surely find one that fits your needs. or
enter "subversion hosting" at your favorite search engine.
