SVN repo What is difference between http://server/ ... / and svn://server/ .. /

Question

I'm new in Linux world and recently start messing around with ubuntu server. For week or so I was able to understand the basics and now I'm shooting for more difficult tasks like setting up web server, ssh and SVN.

The question is: how to set url to be visible like svn://......../....

I found this and the book http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.serverconfig.svnserve.html perhaps i'm not doing something right:

svnserve as daemon

The easiest option is to run svnserve as a standalone “daemon” process. Use the -d option for this:

$ svnserve -d
$
# svnserve is now running, listening on port 3690

When tape this line and restart the service apache2 nothing changes. And I'm not sure is this the way to make it.

Answer 1

Apache in any way does not related to handling svn:// protocol

Quote from referenced by you page of SVN Book

Once we successfully start svnserve as explained previously, it makes every repository on your system available to the network. A client needs to specify an absolute path in the repository URL. For example, if a repository is located at /var/svn/project1, a client would reach it via svn://host.example.com/var/svn/project1.
