svn over https/ssl + nginx?

Question

is

• svn ( or any other version control system)
• over https (so the sending of the code is secure)
• served by nginx

possible scenario?

Or do I have to run apache?

I don't want to give ssh access to somebody else but there will be others working on the project I want to be checked in svn

Answer 1

nginx doesn't support subversion as standard, you'll need to run Apache for this. You could always just proxy subversion requests to Apache and run everything else with NginX
