Can one safely have the same SVN repository served by both svnserve and httpd ?

I have performance issues with remote users using httpd.

I wonder if this is feasible, recommended... ?

Thanks,

Yes it can be done. svnserve and web_dav can both serve from the same directory.

Our current setup is doing exactly this.

    We did the install but faced a problem in SVN's internal folder rights (_Permission denied : Can't move db/txn-protorevs to 'db/revs_) because svnserve was launched with root privileges. – chamaster Jun 14 '11 at 07:35

    Make sure apache can access it. I tend to add apache to the group 'developers' and then group-own all the svn dirs to the developers group. – KOGI Jun 14 '11 at 17:33

  • @arunp - sorry, I don't know. This answer is 4.5 years old at this point and I haven't used SVN in a very long time. – KOGI Dec 17 '15 at 18:34
