user #

• Default Value: 100
• Description: The maximum number of simultaneously used http connections between Stages and the Subversion server.

> http.ssl.allow.all +

• Default Value: false
• Description: When set to true, disables any verification checks for certificates in case of ssl-secured https connections. It is recommended to only use this in test environments where no valid certificates exist (e.g. self-signed certificates).

> use.system.account.for.download +

• Default Value: false
• Description: When set to true, files will be downloaded from stages using the system account.

> domain

• Description: You may enter the Subversion default domain for the Stages system account, and all user accounts. (Only necessary for ntlm authentication)

Access to Subversion projects can be configured in Stages processes via “Management > File Management > Repositories”.

Name: The name of this Subversion configuration. This name will be used by Stages to refer to this repository configuration (e.g. in repository plan)

Subversion Server: This selection field contains an entry for each cms-host section in the Stages configuration file (config.xml). You can select the host for this repository configuration.

Repository Path Define the path to the Subversion repository. This overwrites the path from the URL entered in the configuration file (config.xml).

Example:

• config.xml: <cms-host name="http://mySubversion.de:123/myPath/to/myRepository" />
• Value in Repository Path: myPath/to/another/Repository
• Resulting URL: http://mySubversion.de:123/myPath/to/another/Repository
• The path from the config.xml gets overwritten by the value from Repository Path.

Enforce Usage of System Account If this is set to true, Stages will use the user credentials from this repository configuration for ALL operations. This means, every check-in, download or lock operation will be executed with the same username.

Username: Define a username for this repository configuration. This overwrites the property username from the configuration file (config.xml).

Password Define a username for this repository configuration. This overwrites the property password from the configuration file (config.xml).

Default Lifecycle Select a lifecycle from the process metamodel as default for files from this repository.

If the svn attribute “svn:needs-lock” is set for a file this will be ignored by Stages
