let’s say you communicate with your SVN repository via ssh and a non-standard port (not 22).

to get svn commands transmitting on let’s say port 123, here’s what you can do:

•  add the following to ~/.ssh/config:

host SVNalias
Hostname www.svnhost.com
Port 123

• now, just call your svn command using the alias:

svn import ./local_folder svn+ssh://user@SVNalias/SVN/new_folder -m “initial import”
