<para>The manual installation of GForge is documented below. Be sure to follow each step carefully, check the forums for frequently asked questions, and ask your Apache, Mailman, and PostgreSQL installation questions in the corresponding mailing lists rather than on the GForge forums where little help is available.</para>

<title>Overview</title>
- <para>SVN is also managed via plugin – the scmsvn plugin is included and activated by default in GForge. As with scmcvs, you have to move the <filename>scmcvs/etc/plugins/*</filename> files to <filename>/etc/gforge/plugins/*</filename> and may have to make minor modifications for your specific setup.</para>
- <para>There are two ways to manage SVN – one is to have SVN over DAV and the other is to have SVN over SSH just as you do with CVS. If you choose to use DAV, you will need the <filename class="libraryfile">mod_auth_gforge</filename> library compiled and installed in your apache and the appropriate virtual host settings in your <filename>httpd.conf</filename>. <filename class="libraryfile">mod_auth_gforge</filename> is available from gforge.org. The cronjobs to manage SVN are in <filename class="directory">cronjobs/dav-svn/</filename> and so are sample <filename>httpd.conf</filename> virtual host settings. Each of these cronjobs has configuration parameters which you may have to edit manually for your specific system.</para>
