To create a local Subversion repository, choose Versioning > Subversion > Create Repository.
In the Create Subversion Repository dialog, a location and file system type are suggested for your new repository. To provide an example to use in this guide, overtype the repository path with D:/repos. You can leave the file system type as the default Native, and you do not have to provide a connection name.
When the repository is created, a connection to it will be created automatically. You can see this in the Subversion Navigator:
Repository URL: Full, valid URL for the location of the Subversion repository. The following are URL schemas and the access methods they map to:
- file:/// -- Direct repository access (on local disk)
- http://-- Access via WebDAV protocol to Subversion-aware Apache server
- https:// -- Same as http://, but with SSL encryption
- svn:// -- Access via custom protocol to an svnserve server
- svn+ssh:// -- Same as svn://, but through an SSH tunnel
Connection Name: Name for this connection. If you leave this box blank, the connection will be given a name based on the URL of the repository location
