How to configure SVN/SSH with SSH on non standard port?
You can define a new 'tunnel' in your Subversion configuration (~/.subversion/config
). Find the section [tunnels]
there and define something like:
[tunnels]
foo = ssh -p 20000
Afterwards you can contact your repository via the URL svn+foo://server.com/home/svn/proj1 proj1
.
Whenever you need to access an ssh server on a non-default port or with a different user name, you can define an alias in ~/.ssh/config
.
Host mysvn
HostName server.com
Port 20000
User jm
Then run svn co svn+ssh://mysvn/home/svn/proj1
.
If for some reason you could not edit the ~/.subversion/config
file, then you can specify the port in the command-line:
svn co svn+ssh://joe@myserver/myrepo/ --config-option="config:tunnels:ssh=ssh -p 20000"
but you must do this option every time you run the svn
command. This might make sense for a build agent.
