Hello

I'm trying to understand SVN and Tortiose SVN.
I have set up an raspberry-pi server with subversion and apache2 libapache2-svn. Link https://www.jeremymorgan.com/tutorials/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-how-to-svn-server/

I can commit, check out and more.

But I don't understand how I can make a new repository on the apache server from Tortiose SVN.

There is no way to add a repository in the repository browser. And If I make a new folder then mark it to make a "new repository" it only makes it local on the filsystem.

Can anyone explain to me how to make a new repository on the apache server without using the command line.

pi@raspberrypiBox: svnadmin create /home/pi/repos/helloworld


Thank you
Espen

Assuming you used /home/pi/repos as your svn root, you'd do :
cd /home/pi/repos
svnadmin create newRepo
or
svnadmin create /home/pi/repos/newRepo

and it would be accessible at:
http(s)://<Host>:<port>/svn/newRepo

Hello Kyle

I was hoping there was a way to make a new repo in http(s):// with eks Tortiose.
But I understand I have to use the console to make a new repo.

Thank you

Espen
