Invoking the Server

There are a few different ways to run the svnserve program:

  • Run svnserve as a standalone daemon, listening for requests.

  • Have the Unix inetd daemon temporarily spawn svnserve whenever a request comes in on a certain port.

  • Have SSH invoke a temporary svnserve over an encrypted tunnel.

  • Run svnserve as a Microsoft Windows service.
