Manage repositories

Create a repository
When you add a new repository, you can set it up using a template or a backup that you created earlier.

Connect an existing repository
To start managing your existing repositories with the web interface, you need to first make Subversion Edge aware of their location.

Define repository access rules
You can configure Subversion's native authorization rules to give users access to a whole repository, or to a specific path within a repository.

Schedule repository backups
As part of repository maintenance, you can schedule full dump or hotcopy backups and specify the number of backup files to retain. You can also back up your repositories to the CollabNet Cloud.

Dump a repository
In addition to scheduled backups, Subversion Edge lets you perform an ad hoc dump of your repository. With this option, you can choose a range of revisions or use deltas for the dump, select a format for the dump file, and filter the dump results.

Load a repository
Let's say you're moving your Subversion repository to a different system. You can create a new empty repository and load it with a dump file via the Subversion Edge console.

Verify repository data
To check the integrity of your repositories, you can verify them ad hoc or schedule a job that does this periodically.

Create a repository template
As an administrator, you can create templates from repository dump files or zip archives and use them to initialize new repositories.

Manage hook scripts
Subversion Edge gives you several options to manage repository hook scripts.

Monitor the disk space used by a repository
As the administrator for your Subversion Edge server, you may need to know the amount of disk space used by an individual repository and how the usage is growing over time.

Delete a repository
Let's say you have a project that was ended before it got off the ground. You might want to save disk space by deleting its source code repository.
