Since I often work on my projects both at work and at home, I have to update my code base often by sending myself emails back and forth with a .zip of the source. Not very efficient to say the least.

So I started looking into using SVN for my own projects. I love it for our work project. The only thing I have found is the use of open source places like SourceForge and RIAForge. I am not interested in making it open source at the moment. Maybe later but not now.

So does anyone know of a place that has SVN repositories for private projects?

some hosts allow you to have SVN repos on their hosting. I know (because I am hosted there and was just looking at this very same thing last week) that MediaTemple allows SVN through ssh. I'm sure a lot of other hosts do too, just gotta look around.

I kinda assumed that you could do it if you had a web host but wasn't sure. Is the setup pretty painless from your experience?

i actually haven't set it up yet, we use CVS at work and I'm trying to wrap my head around setting up an SVN version and understanding SVN through the command line (even though I use eclipse and would be using a GUI), but MT has a full article on how to do it on their server and of course there are tons of articles on how to use it, inside of eclipse in my case or out. seems relatively straightforward though.
