You are going to need to type fast but I think you can do it in 4 minutes. These are my notes on what worked for me on my Fedora core 6 with svn lib already installed by the package manager:

1. Create a Repository

svnadmin create /svnrepos

Yeah, this is simple but I’m forgetful so heres how you copy an entire directory, its subdirectories, and files:

cp -R dirtocopy/ newdir/

To create a tar archive of an entire directory including all files and sub-directories:

tar -cvf mytarfile.tar mydir/

This is mostly just a post for my recollection. To search all files and subdirectories recursively for a phrase:

grep -r -i somethingtosearchfor ./
