My admins don want me to have a HTTP server for Subversion. What can I do if I still want remote usage?
A simple opton is to use the svnserve server instead of Apache. See chapter 6 in the Subversion book for details. However, if your admins don’t want you to run Apache, it’s very likely they don’t want you to run a custom server process on port 3690 either! So the rest of this answer assumes that your admins are okay you using an existing SSH infrastructure. If you previously used CVS, you may have used SSH to login to the CVS server. The ra_svn Subversion access method is the equivalent way of doing this with Subversion. Just use the “svn+ssh” prefix to your Subversion repository URL.
