Providing Remote Access: svnserve
svnserve provides access to
Subversion repositories using the svn network protocol. You can run svnserve either as a standalone server
process, or you can have another process, such as inetd, xinetd, or sshd, start it for you.
Once the client has selected a repository by transmitting its URL, svnserve reads a file named conf/svnserve.conf in the repository directory to determine repository-specific settings such as what authentication database to use and what authorization policies to apply. The details are provided in Version Control with Subversion.
