Re: SVN appache configuration.

You can always create a virtual host that listens on port 80 that simply redirects to port 443:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName svn.example.com
Redirect / https://svn.example.com/ permanent
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName svn.example.com

.... Virtual Host SSL settings

</VirtualHost>

I currently use this on my company's SVN repository.

Looking over those instructions briefly, it looks like their
instructions state that you should put the <Location /svn/src> block
inside the <VirtualHost *:443> block. This will cause the repository
to only be available over https.

Again, looking briefly at their instructions, their <Location> block
includes the directive "Require valid-user". This will cause a
password to be required.
