Managing a Subversion Server

Recently, I set up an SVN server on a Gentoo machine (not an ordinary machine.. It has 6 sparc cpu’s =) ) using the great howto from Gentoo Wiki. It works quite well, but I also need a web-based tool for ease of administration. I found svnmanager, but I had problems with it. It uses Prado Framework 2.0.3, which won’t work with newer versions of PHP. As the server will also run other PHP applications, downgrading is not an option.
First I tried to update svnmanager’s codes to newer versions of Prado Framework but Prado changed in many ways in the never versions (3.x). And finally I decided to code my own web based SVN administration tool. I’ll start tomorrow, and i guess it will be finished in a couple of days. I had written a tool like this for our good old cvs server, and this looks even easier.
I’ll be sharing the code for anyone that needs it.

About Me


About

I am a Computer Engineering Student expecting to graduate at the end of this season from Ege University. I am currently working hardly on my thesis; I’m using Spring Framework, Hibernate, JSF (MyFaces + Richfaces) and Lucene on Glassfish and MySQL, and building it with Maven.I am interested in Open Source projects and gaming. I read a lot of development-related blogs, but I’m generally lazy to write my own.

I use Ubuntu (8.04) on my development PC, and Windows XP on my gaming PC. I play Team Fortress 2, C&C3 - Tiberium Wars in my free time, hoping to get a PS3 soon.

To balance the negative effects of sitting on a chair infront of a computer for many hours, I exercise and workout regularly.
