MetaPRL RW Subversion Instructions

MetaPRL Read-Write Subversion Access

Make sure you have OpenSSH (or some other implementation of SSH version 2 protocol) installed on your computer.
Make sure you have Subversion version 1.0 or later (>= 1.2 is probably a good idea) installed on your computer.
If you do not have a Subversion account set up for you on svn.metaprl.org:
1. Create a SSH2 DSA public/private key pair, unless you already have one:
  1. Use the ssh-keygen -t dsa command to generate the SSH2 DSA public/private key pair. Here's a sample session:
    
    $ssh-keygen -t dsa
    Generating public/private dsa key pair.
    Enter file in which to save the key (/home/username/.ssh/id_dsa):
    Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
    Enter same passphrase again:
    Your identification has been saved in /home/username/.ssh/id_dsa.
    Your public key has been saved in /home/username/.ssh/id_dsa.pub.
    The key fingerprint is:
    e2:eb:aa:23:0b:0f:15:6a:f6:39:eb:0f:3a:37:96:20 username@hostname
  2. This creates a public/private key pair ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub (public key) and ~/.ssh/id_dsa (private key).
    Note for Cygwin users: "~/" is <cygwin_installation_path>/home/username/
2. Send your public key (~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub) and your desired login to Aleksey Nogin (nogin@cs.caltech.edu) or Jason Hickey (jyh@cs.caltech.edu).
Put the following into your ~/.ssh/config file (if you do not have ~/.ssh/config file, then create one):
```
Host svn.metaprl.org
   ForwardAgent no
   ForwardX11 no
   User svn
```

Edit your ~/.subversion/config file.

Make sure the [miscellany] section contains (at least) the following line:
```
enable-auto-props = yes
```

Make sure the [auto-props] section contains (at least) the following lines:
