An SVN repository usually saves information as a file system tree, a hierarchy of files, and directories. Any number of clients connects to the SVN repository and reads or writes changes to the files in revisions.
Notice
Consult with your IT specialists for more information, for example how to create an SVN repository. For production purposes, we recommend a strictly dedicated administrative SVN server.
We recommend that you create the suggested default directory structure in the SVN repository.

Creating an SVN repository for testing purposes
Notice
Use the file:// access method for testing purposes only.
Note
You can reach SVN repositories that were created in format 1.8 or 1.9 via the file:// protocol.
For testing purposes, you can create a local SVN repository without installing your own server. The SVN repository is accessed via file:// and provides the same functionality as a server.
Creating a test repository with TortoiseSVN
Requirement: The SVN client TortoiseSVN 1.9 is installed on the development system.
Create a new, empty folder on your local file system. The test repository will be created there.
⇒ Example: D:\\SVN repository
Click TortoiseSVN ‣ Create repository here .
⇒ The dialog Create repository opens.
Click Create directory tree.
⇒ The SVN repository is created.
