Visual SVN / Visual SVN server setup

[Izi]

I have got running Visual SVN /Server- really like the features. However, this is the first source control I have used like this.

I am currious as to how it works and where files are stored. On the server I created a repository, then set up a solution to point to that repository.

When I comit changes, where are the files stored?

What I would like to be able to do do:

* Have central file server with all project source files
* each developer machine checks in/out files from the main project server
* Choose where the main project files are kept.

Please can someone help shed some light how to do this?

Thanks

so is it possible for the subversion server to get courrupt at all?

Obvioulsy will back up the respoitories folder, but can you recover files should something happen?

thanks dan0r2.

reading and learning more. can't beleive i have lived with out this for so long!

Is there a way when you commit changes to the server, for the server then to commit changes to a specified folder (i.e a web directory)?

SET WORKING_COPY=c:\path\to\working\copy
svn update %WORKING_COPY%
