You can change the directory where the configuration files are stored by the system property smartsvn.home. |
For company-wide installations, the administrator can install SmartSVN on a network share. To make deployment and initial configuration for the users easier, certain configuration files can be prepared and put into the subdirectory default (within SmartSVN's installation directory).
When a user starts SmartSVN for the first time, following files will be copied from the default directory to his private configuration area:
The license file (only for Enterprise licenses and 10+ users Professional licenses) can also be placed into the default directory. In this case, SmartSVN will prefill the License field in the Set Up wizard when a user starts SmartSVN for the first time. When upgrading SmartSVN, this license file will also be used, so users won't be prompted with an 'license expired' message, but can continue working seamlessly.
Note |
