Install USVN

A Subversion server for a site like USVN is one of the most user friendly interfaces as well as ergonomic too. It is very easy to install. PHP version 5, Apache 2 are modules needed for the installation of USVN. After configuring Apache, USVN has to be installed. After the installation is over, the web browser has to be accessed and a configuration block is generally added to the Apache configuration file. Apache configuration file, i. e., httpdonf file has to be configured accordingly. Once the block is added, the application will be installed.
