Can Trac connect into SVN repos from other server?

Question

Can Trac connect to an SVN repository from a different server than the one in the SVN repository?

Currently I have Trac and SVN on the same server and they work correctly, but I want to have Trac on one server and SVN on another. I have searched for information about the topic, but I have not found much information.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Trac cannot directly connect to a Subversion server on a remote server. The effective workaround I have seen is to use svnsync create a read-only mirror of the remote repository.

Answer 2

I followed the instructions in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/notes/svnsync.txt to change the hook pre-revprop-change and with this https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracMigrate#SubversionReplication I could do the replication.
