After lots of retrying, I think the problem lied where I thought I could create the repository in a subdirectory of home (namely public_html)… Which was leading to problems.

I did it again a little bit differently

cd ~
svnadmin create svn

Then in subclipse:
1. Right click on your project
2. Team –> Share Project
3. Fill in:
svn+ssh://username@domain/home/username/svn
username: username
password: password

This allowed me to create & commit a project WITHIN the svn repository.

Thank you very much for the tutorial.

Um, I’m actually not too sure! I’m a bit of a web noob, but I would think that your checkout path would look something more like svn+ssh://username@svn.hidden2010.com/ unless ur repo name is hidden, in which case that explains the 2nd line svn: No repository found in ‘svn+ssh://svn.hidden2010.com/hidden

My next suggestion would be to do a checkout using the “full” path, that is svn+ssh://hidden2010.com/home/username/public_html/svn/ to see if that works. If it works well at least you know the repo is up and running.

Sorry if I couldn’t be more helpful :S

Great tutorial! I think I have everything set up properly remotely but I am having problems with Subclipse.

When you create your repository:
svn+ssh://username@hostname/homeX/username/repos/project_name/

Let’s say I created a subdomain called svn.hidden2010.com which points to /home/username/public_html/svn

When I try
svn+ssh://username@svn.hidden2010.com this should be the same thing right?

However, I get the following error:
Location information has been specified incorrectly

svn: No repository found in ‘svn+ssh://svn.hidden2010.com/hidden

Keep location anyway?

Great tut James. I’m on hosted by hostmonster and since bluehost is run by the same guy (see http://www.mattheaton.com) this may come in handy for me in the near future.
