[brlug-general] SVN setup

Currently I do not have any SVN setup. I tried to do it with WebDAV, but
for some reason it never started working correctly.
If I remember, the errors were related to permissions. I think I was
able to create a repository, but never able to make changes there. I
guess I did not understand some of the concepts or something. I'm used
to work on local machine, then upload changes to the server.
Then on the other hand, I'm not sure if all the necessary grunt work was
never done correctly either. Somehow my concept of having a test site,
and production site seemed cumbersome to implement.
Overall, if I can not get something like SVN working in couple of days,
I do not have more time to put on it. (i.e work is calling.....) Within
the past 3-4 years I think I've tried twice.
Regards,
Petri
