url to be used for SVN client

I have set up an svn repository at a shared folder (z:\svn_repository) I have started the svn server as follows :

svnserve -d -r z:\svn_repository

Now I am using a svn client (tortoiseSVN) to access the repository.

tortoiseSVN is asking me for a url to be given. Question: what is the url that I should input to access z:\svn_repository.

Thanks in advance.

  • You must not use repository's directory as root-dir for -r, only parent(s) of repository
  • Then you have -r option correctly specified, only part of path after root used in URL, hostname part is any IP|hostnames, on which svnserve listen ("all interfaces" by default)

For svnserve -d -r z:\ your URL will be svn://HOSTNAME/svn_repository

Read SVNBook carefully!
