Installing and configuring Apache Subversion with modules on Redhat

Procedure

As user apache or as root, install the httpd, mod_dav_svn and subversion packages.
```
# yum install httpd mod_dav_svn subversion
```
Create an svn directory.
```
# mkdir /var/www/svn
```

Create an SVN repository.

# svnadmin create /var/www/svn/repository

Create a user name and a password.

# htpasswd -cmb /var/www/svn/passwd admin@company.com admin

Change the owner of the directory to apache.
```
# chown -R apache.apache /var/www/svn
```
Open the SVN configuration file.
```
# vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf
```
On CentOS 7, the name of the configuration file is 10-subversion.conf. The configuration file is located under the /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d folder

Update is as follows:

<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNPath /var/www/svn/repository
Require valid-user
AuthType basic
AuthName "Subversion"
AuthUserFile /var/www/svn/passwd
</Location>

Restart httpd.
```
# /etc/init.d/httpd start
```
