How can be set a default proxy setting for all local users for SVN?
To set a default proxy setting for all local users for SVN (Subversion), you can modify the SVN configuration file (servers
file) located in the user's AppData directory. Follow these steps:
Open the SVN configuration file:
Navigate to the following directory:shell%APPDATA%\Subversion
In this directory, you should find a file named
servers
. Open this file using a text editor.Locate the
[global]
section:
Inside theservers
file, locate the[global]
section. If it doesn't exist, add it to the file.Set the proxy configuration:
Within the[global]
section, add or modify the following lines to set the proxy configuration:yamlhttp-proxy-host = proxy.example.com
http-proxy-port = 8080
http-proxy-username = your_username
http-proxy-password = your_password
Replace
proxy.example.com
with the hostname or IP address of your proxy server. Set thehttp-proxy-port
to the appropriate port number. Replaceyour_username
andyour_password
with your proxy credentials if required.Save the configuration file:
Save the changes to theservers
file.
These steps will set the default proxy configuration for SVN for all local users on the machine. Each user's SVN commands will use the specified proxy settings when interacting with remote repositories.
Note that modifying the servers
file in this way affects all SVN operations on the machine for all users. If users have their own individual proxy settings, they will need to override or modify the proxy configuration locally.
It's recommended to back up the original servers
file before making any changes and ensure that you have the necessary permissions to modify the file.
