Using Subversion with Nginx
March, 27 2008 02:31 PM
I've been wanting to solve this problem for awhile now, and it seems like solving this problem is a simple thing, but will require some good old open source programming. At the moment the only solution I can find for getting subversion to work with nginx is to proxy subversion requests through nginx to apache (or use apache directly if that is the sole purpose of your machine). The solution is well documented even posted up on the trac wiki (http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracNginxRecipe) but wouldn't it be nice to be able to use nginx directly? I found a post on the ruby forums regarding this and it looks like someone might be working on it sometime soon (http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/140841). Is anyone working on this and if so where can I get some more information?
About Lancelot Carlson and this blog
I created this blog from scratch using rails at a lightning quick pace. I figure, why not walk the walk
and use my blog as a testing bed for all those ruby/rails ideologies I evangelize. Here you will find
not only a digest of my learnings and brain dumps about topics ranging from Ruby to Nginx to Search Engine
Optimization, but also a laboratory. This is a place where the mad programmer in me can test my crazy ideas and
code in the wild and hopefully get enough interest to warrant some feedback.
