While browsing a repository in a web browser it quickly becomes appearent that the default styling is a bit bland. Fortunately we can style the repository listing up by using "SVNIndexXSLT".

SVNIndexXSLT allows us to call a xsl transformation on the repository listing to apply css styling. This file and its associated files (ie css) must exist in yourdomain.com outside of the repositories path. I put them in the root htdocs of yourdomain.com, but they can as easily be in "/htdocs/svnstyles/".

You can find an example of svnindex.xsl in the "/tools/xslt" directory of the subversion download.

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName yourdomain.com
   DocumentRoot "/htdocs"
   <Location "/snv">
      Dav svn
      SVNListParentPath on
      SVNParentPath "/svn/"
      SVNIndexXSLT "/htdocs/svnindex.xsl"
      ---snip---
   </Location>
</VirtualHost>

Now when you browse your repositories you should see some nice styling.
