This is fairly well explained in the Subversion Docs. Look particular at
the section giving the various server options.

Firstly you need to set the appropriate rights to the username and group
(usually wwwrun and www on SuSE) to the folder using chown and chmod,
then secondly you need to make decisions about the authentication
mechanism you intend use (http or otherwise) and whether you want to use
the and then modify.

/etc/apache2/conf.d/subversion.conf

appropriately...

I would recommend the file:/destination path definition to use 'svn
import' locally (the repository can later be accessed remotely) as I
have found the http:/localhost/destination option a little temperamental
in the past...

I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my
telephone.
My wish has come true. I no longer know how to use my telephone.
