How to transfer files to server via SVN

/ Published in: Bash
Save to your folder(s)
Because our server is a virtual machine inside a virtual machine (it's like inception), we can't transfer file using FTP. You need using SVN repository as a bridge to do so.

Follow [Exercise 3](http://www.cs.sfu.ca/cc/470/ggbaker/exer/3 "Exercise 3"), create a folder in your own computer, checkout from your *INDIVIDUAL* repository (the url we used for exercise 3 is for group project, use this one instead)

`https://punch.cs.sfu.ca/svn/CMPT470-1117-userid`

Put some file in the folder and commit, your files will be upload to the repository.

Now you can download these files from repository to the server.

  14. #move the file you need to public_html folder, so it will be visible from web
  15.  
  16. mv myfolder/myprogram.py /home/userid/public_html/myprogram.py
  17.  
  18. #now you should able to view your file from http://cmpt470.csil.sfu.ca:8003/~userid/myprogram.py
