I recently setup SVN using the apache HTTP server and found it very 
easy.
Took all of about 1-2 hours and I have no experience with version 
control and/or http servers.

I used the XAMPP package to install apache which made installing a 
breeze but beware that XAMPP leaves the server unsecured (not a 
problem in our installation). 
(http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html)

XAMPP takes care of all the HTTPS setup and includes some other web 
services (PHP, MySQL etc) which are quite useful (I'm starting to 
learn how to use these tools now).

I found the tortoise documentation excellent (easier to read than 
the SVN
docs) for setting up the server and users.

If you do decide to use XAMPP you will need to use Version 1.50 as 
SVN doesn't currently work with Apache2.2.0.

Good luck implementing you version control system, whatever you 
decide to use.
I'll never go back to working without one now.

Kevin

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
