I am implementing SVNEdge from collabnet in my organization. Currently, I have 80+ repositories scattered across 4 different locations on linux server.

  1. SVNEdge provides a field, named "Repository Directory:", to mention parent-location where all repositories are kept. How Multiple parent locations for SVN repositories can be specified to get them discovered in SVNEdge?

  2. Currently every SVN repository has its own Authz file to manage user/group permission. How can all these authz files be ported to SVNEdge?

Let me know if more info is required. Thanks.

  • I don't think that what you are asking is currently possible. So, do some consolidation - manually setup the authorization by merging the authz files with the one used by SVNEdge, then move the repositories to a parent directory and have SVNEdge discover them – Sameer Singh May 03 '13 at 09:57
  • hmm.. so this is what i also thought, authz files needs to be handled manually :( . – rohit May 06 '13 at 08:35
  • What about the Que-1, can SVNEdge discover Multiple parent directories containing SVN repositories?? – rohit May 06 '13 at 08:38
  • @SameerSingh I have already tried and didn't see any option to do it. Seems like very less people has tried this. – rohit May 07 '13 at 06:00

How Multiple parent locations for SVN repositories can be specified to get them discovered in SVNEdge?

Discover repositories option can find the new repositories only when you have the new repos placed in its default location csvn/data/repositories. So, I suggest you to move all your scattered repos into this location and then click Discover Repositories. You can also move everything in a shared folder and specify the new path in the Edge console settings.

How can all these authz files be ported to SVNEdge?

The access rules can be modified/added in the web UI under the Access Rules option on the Repositories tab.
