Features
VisualSVN Server provides the following main features.
Active Directory Single Sign-On
Allows users to access VisualSVN Server using their current Active Directory domain credentials. Secure Kerberos V5 or NTLM authentication protocols are used. Support for two-factor authentication and smart cards is available.
Learn moreMultisite Repository Replication
Provides high-performance replication between geographically distributed sites using VisualSVN Distributed File System (VDFS) technology. Distributed repositories are writable and functionally equivalent to regular Subversion repositories.
Learn moreFull-Text Search
Search through the contents and history of your repositories — in any folder, at any revision. The search engine offers high performance, continuous indexing of new revisions and has virtually no limits on the repository sizes.
Learn moreBackup and Restore
The Backup and Restore feature was specifically designed for Subversion repositories and enables highly effective hot backup capabilities. In conjunction with scheduled repository verification, the Backup and Restore feature provides a reliable data protection from human errors and software or hardware failures.
Learn moreHTML5-powered Web Interface
A rich web interface for Subversion repositories with modern look and feel. The Repository Web Interface is seamlessly integrated with all authentication and authorization features of VisualSVN Server. Ensures easy integration with issue trackers and other third-party applications.
Learn morePowerShell Scripting and Automation
VisualSVN Server includes a PowerShell module with a number of cmdlets to help administrators automate routine and repetitive tasks as well as simplify the server and repository deployment tasks.
Learn moreRepository Management Delegation
Allows non-administrative users to manage repositories remotely using standalone application called VisualSVN Repository Configurator. All permission modifications performed by repository supervisors are logged for audit purposes.
Learn moreRemote Server Administration
Allows to administer remote instances of VisualSVN Server. Because VisualSVN Server Manager is a standard MMC snap-in, you can create a single console to manage several VisualSVN Server instances across your network.
Learn moreAccess and Operational Logging
Allows you to monitor all HTTP requests and all logical Subversion operations processed by VisualSVN Server, including read-only operations such as Checkout and Update. Log entries are recorded to the Windows Event Log.
