<p>I'm looking for a quick-and-dirty solution to this, I have to set up a Subversion server really quickly, like by the end of the day tomorrow.  My initial thought was to just download a virtual appliance that we could load onto our host machine.  The problem I am having however is that all the appliances I have found so far are stuck in svn version 1.4 or lower.</p>

<p>Does anybody know of an appliance that has svn 1.5 running?  I don't need any of the other bits like issue tracking, WebSVN or any of that stuff.</p>

<p>Thanks,
Wally</p>

<p><strong><em>EDIT:
To answer some of the questions, I would prefer for the host OS to be some flavour of Linux so that I can avoid having to purchase an additional Windows license.</em></strong></p>

A globally\n  distributed IT organization can\n  literally be up and running in\n  minutes. Just download it, turn it on,\n  and it works. Features: Includes\n  Subversion, Apache, a fully supported\n  version of Linux and WANdisco\'s unique\n  multi-site replication technology that\n  allows distributed developers to\n  collaborate at LAN-speed over a WAN,\n  instead of working in silos. Combines\n  the zero-latency deployment offered by\n  hosted Software as a Service (SaaS)\n  solutions for Subversion, with all of\n  the flexibility, control and security\n  of traditional behind the firewall\n  implementations. Eliminates\n  environmental dependencies, making\n  installation, deployment and ongoing\n  maintenance a snap. Fully supported\n  Just Enough Operating System (JeOS)\n  based on Linux provides everything\n  needed for deployment under a VM, or\n  on industry standard hardware.\n  Available for any target\n  virtualization environment including\n  VMware ESX, Citrix XenServer, and\n  Windows with Hyper-V. Ongoing\n  maintenance and support are also\n  dramatically simplified with automatic\n  updates for all appliance components,\n  including Subversion, Apache, Linux\n  and WANdisco. There\'s no more one-off\n  manual upgrades and patches. An entire\n  multi-site implementation can be\n  monitored and administered from a\n  single location. Sites can be brought\n  online, or taken offline for\n  maintenance without disrupting user\n  access. Built-in continuous hot backup\n  and automated recovery features\n  virtually eliminate downtime, making\n  third party disk mirroring solutions\n  unnecessary. Transparent\n  implementation approach doesn\'t change\n  Subversion\'s functionality, so no user\n  retraining is required.\n   Supported</p>\n</blockquote>\n\n<p><strong>Supported: \nVMware (R) Virtual Appliance\nVMware (R) ESX Server Virtual Appliance\nMicrosoft (R) VHD Virtual Appliance\nCitrix XenServer (TM) Appliance\nVirtual Iron Virtual Appliance\nInstallable ISO/CD/DVD (directly on the server)</strong></p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 419370, 'author': 'Luke', 'author_id': 21406, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/21406', 'pm_score': -1, 'selected': False, 'text': '<p><a href="http://www.jumpbox.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Jumpbox.com</a> has completely set up virtual appliances for \'virtually\' all kinds of applications including Subversion.</p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 455187, 'author': 'Daniel Lopez', 'author_id': 56395, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/56395', 'pm_score': 2, 'selected': False, 'text': '<p>No need to use an appliance, use the free <a href="http://bitnami.org/stack/subversion" rel="nofollow noreferrer">BitNami one click Subversion installer</a>  (supports Linux, Windows, Mac...)</p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 15314286, 'author': 'Jay', 'author_id': 79737, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/79737', 'pm_score': -1, 'selected': False, 'text': '<p>The Turnkey community appliance looks very good (though I have not tried it yet)\n<a href="http://www.turnkeylinux.org/revision-control" rel="nofollow">http://www.turnkeylinux.org/revision-control</a></p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 60891693, 'author': 'bahrep', 'author_id': 761095, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/761095', 'pm_score': 0, 'selected': False, 'text': '<p>Just download and install VisualSVN Server.
