Installing Artifactory from WAR

Configuring Artifactory security and repositories

Understand that it is necessary, you need it, you deserve it, you want Subversion to control your code revisions. But you are clumsy enough (just as me) to be able to build your own repository at home with svn and Apache.

Thank God I found some brilliant tutorials and products, all of them, of couse, open source. I was intended to use only Tomcat6 and war packaged software, but both Apache and uSvn really deserve some Megas in the hard drive of your heart (and in the Continuous Integration Server's one).

I liked it too much because, mainly, because when I read about an easy tutorial, it takes me some days or weeks to accomplish its goal, ufff, I am not exaggerating, I am often silly. But it didn't happen this time with this uSVN tutorial and product.


By the way, what is uSVN?

"User-Friendly USVN is a web interface written in PHP used to configure Subversion repositories.It's goal is to ease the creation of new projects without having to use the command line interface, therefor, maybe without privileged access to the server. USVN will then generate the list of users allowed to access your source code. This enable the delegation of rights to administrate Subversion repositories."
