I use svk with several large repositories on a fast local network.
Up until now, I have accessed these repositories via NFS.
For a variety of reasons, I would like to limit access to the
repositories to go through http: or svn: to a centralized internal server.
Now, I know that I could set up a local mirror for the http: or svn:
repository, but I am not at all satisfied with this arrangement. The
repositories are large, backed up regularly, and I have fast access to
them, so there is no need to mirror them. In fact, it looks like
mirroring would actually get in the way for me.
I really would like to be able to do this:
svk depotmap /central/ http://svn.fastinternalhost.ourlan.co.nz/central/repo
and have it work as transparently as something like this does for access
via NFS:
svk depotmap /central/ /hosts/fastinternalhost/central/repo
Yes, this means that I do want all accesses for the repository to go
through the http: (or svn:), without any mirroring or syncing.
