As my office’s internet connection using a proxy server, I need to configure my subversion client to use proxy when established a connection. With help from the mighty Google.com, I found the answer in this blog and just for my note, I will post the answer here.

All you have to do is add/edit proxy server in your subversion client configuration. Since I am using GNU/Linux, you can find the configuration in .subversion directory (notice there is a dot (.) before subversion). In that directory you can find a file named servers. Open it with your favourite text editor, in my case I launch vim in my terminal:

rakhmad@GABRIEL:~ $> vim .subversion/servers

find a section named global and then add/modify these lines

[global]

http-proxy-exceptions = local.server.com, localhost

http-proxy-host = proxy.server.com

http-proxy-port = 8080

http-proxy-username = username

http-proxy-password = password

save the modification, and that’s it!
