How to setup a git or svn repository on a local server/PC on Windows?

Question

I haven't been able to find a step by step tutorial to setup a git or svn repository on my local server/PC running on Windows! It should provide access to multiple users for submitting source code and stuff. I am new to concepts such as svn or git and would really appreciate a tutorial covering the basics. Are there any other alternatives to git or svn which can be setup on a local windows server?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Try Visual SVN as it's very easy to setup and manage. It comes with latest version of bundled SVN server and nice UI for managing users and repositories. Free for commercial projects development.

I found very nice quick guide for installing and configuring Visual SVN. Almost every step is illustrated with a screenshot.

Set up Apache to serve your webpages and put your bare git repository in the DocumentRoot, e.g. one created with git init --bare. If you need further assistance, do leave a comment.
