Thanks that was the location. – Darren Jun 13 '11 at 18:36
I can not find it on my server. Why it is not created? – Bob May 04 '15 at 06:07
For Cygwin's build of Subversion, it's in ~/.subversion such as /home/SYSTEM/.subversion. – eel ghEEz Jul 27 '16 at 17:08

It's usually located in %APPDATA%\Subversion.

FYI: Restart after a fresh install. The `%APPDATA%/Subversion` folder didn't exist until I did a reboot... There might be a cleaner way to do this -- maybe logging out/in. – blackstrype Feb 27 '15 at 10:11

The folder is created after you first start any svn client. no need to reboot. – Stefan Feb 27 '15 at 12:56

most likely on your server, the svn part runs as another user than the one you're logged in. So %APPDATA% points to your folder instead of the server-user folder. But you can figure out the path by replacing the username in the expanded %APPDATA% path. – Stefan May 04 '15 at 08:12

Paths:

C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\Subversion\  --Windows XP   
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Subversion  -- Vista / 7

In Windows, If you can't see the config file. You can open it (without extension) if you paste the above selected path in your window explorer. And then will choose your IDE app.

Finally, you can read the README file located in the same route.

In my case all pathes from the comments contain default empty config files and real service parameters were stored at the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Clansoft\SVNService
