Does not exist. |

*One* way you can use it is by accessing the repository through a web |
| 7 |
server (http:// and https://) - which makes all the network access stuff |
| 8 |
virtually transparent. |

But an equally valid way of accessing a subversion repository is via |
| 11 |
their internal protocol (svn://), which can be seamlessly and |
| 12 |
effortlessly tunnelled over ssh (svn+ssh://). Or you can neglect a |
| 13 |
network layer entirely and just use a repository local to your project |
| 14 |
(file://) |

The ebuild does more or less assume you're building it to have the |
| 17 |
http[s] capability, and so it becomes fairly complex, but there's |
| 18 |
nothing that says you have to go that way. |
