I have Visual studio 2008 running on windows-7(x86). I have installed subversion (server+client), tortoise svn and ankhsvn on my system.
I could add my solution to subversion’s repository using the url: File://c:/svn_repository/
But when I try “svn://localhost” I do not see any repository on my system.

My friend who is on the same LAN cannot see my repository.

What repository URL should I use for others in LAN to be able to see my repository?

    1. Create a repository with svnadmin create <repos name>
    2. Make sure your sever is running (svnserve.exe) with sysinternals process explorer for example
    3. Check you can connect with tortoisesvn use svn://yourip as URL
    4. add AND commit your project either
    5. Your friend should also use the same URL
    6. Try out by using your hostname. NOTE: localhost IS NOT your hostname!!!
