Using Tortoise with Trac

Newbie asks, In Trac’s where is the subversion repository to use to the feature ‘browse source’? I have setup(in install) the initial project path Bitnami Trac Stack/projects/myProject. This appears to the storage location of the Trac stuff. Is there a folder in this folder that you store your repository?

What is the file you have to edit to tell trac how to connect with the repository?

Can Tortoise be used with the Bitnami Trac? (I am I trying to do something impossible)

Thanks

how do you setup/connect a subversion repository to Tortoise

Hi,

Is there a folder in this folder that you store your repository?

The default repository is created in <installdir>/repository

What is the file you have to edit to tell trac how to connect with the repository?

There is an utility called trac-admin to manage the projects

Can Tortoise be used with the Bitnami Trac? (I am I trying to do something impossible)

Well, I have never used it, but I don’t see a reason why it should not. Remember, the default repository is located in <installdir>/repository

Cheers

Here’s what worked, but did not do testing!
After researching the bitnami installI determined that I couldn’t figure out how to create a repository using the command line, So I just used Tortise to SVN checkout it to the <installdir>/repository. I was able to see the files in the Trac Browse menu.

Testing to do.
1. Is this all I need to run trac? There are two modules that Subversion need to use and your stack loads them
LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so It also requires mod_pyhon instead of CGI which you load.

2. The security is in question because I do not load any references in the httpd.conf file
The issue

Hit the tab key The issue come up whether people outside the computer or different users can access with out the hooks

3. The trac-admin needs to be runnable to determine which components are needed (testing) So need to relearn python, or get web admin running or both.

4. There is currently no way to manage the subversion component (without Tortoise) because loading the SVN modules was outside of the scope of this project.

Goal would be to extend this project to make a simple SCM tool (Subversion-Trac-Tortoise-Hotcopy(backup).

Otherwise it is the easy way to get a Trac environment running, Great job
