Unfortunely after changing our web server over from Apache to Nginx, we can no longer offer simple HTTP for anonymous read-only access to our Subversion repositories. But you can access anonymously using the RSA key-pair and instructions provided on this page. Alternatively if you already have an RSA key-pair, you can contact us with your public key requesting it be added to the authorized_keys file for read-only access. Note that you must still connect using the svn use not your own user name.
This RSA key can be used to access our Subversion repositories with read-only access. First change into your home directory (e.g. cd /home/YOURNAME). Copy the text of both the public and private parts below and paste them into files .ssh/od_rsa.pub and .ssh/od_rsa respectively (.ssh is a hidden directory in your home directory, if it doesn't exist you'll need to create it first). Make sure the private key has mode 600 (e.g. use chmod 600 .ssh/od_rsa). Then add a protocol to your tunnels section in your .subversion/config file that matches the existing ssh tunnel except that it specifies your new key using the -i option as follows:
You can then checkout a repository with the following syntax, and then do any read operations on it as usual.
