Customize Subversion repository URLs

The Desktop lets you select the repositories you work with frequently, customize the Subversion URLs for individual repositories, and add more than one root URL for a repository.

  1. In the Site Explorer, right-click the Source Code node for a TeamForge project and select Repository preferences.
  2. In the TeamForge Repository Preferences dialog, select the repositories you want displayed in the Site Explorer.

    With TeamForge 6.1, Subversion repositories can be replicated. So you may want to check for and select a replica located nearby.

  3. To add an alternative root URL for an individual repository, select that row in the Repositories table, click Change, and edit the default URL.

    Unlike earlier versions of the product, the customized URL at the repository level is not used to replace "/svnroot" — it is used directly as the SVN repository URL in order to support TeamForge path-based permissions.

  4. To define multiple root URLs for a repository, enter the full paths separated by commas.
  5. Click OK.

    When you expand the repository under the Source Code node in the Site Explorer, you will see the paths you defined under each repository node.
