Does the settings repository feature work with an SVN repository?

Answered

I'm looking to share settings across my team. The documentation seems to suggest that only GIT can be used as a settings repository

https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/sharing-your-ide-settings.html

Whenever I try to use an svn settings repo, it fails with an error "... could not be stablished because of SSL problems" even though I am able to update/commit etc to the same repo in intellij.

Is it even possible to use SVN for a settings sharing repository?

Settings repository works with Git only, actually, docs at https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/sharing-your-ide-settings.html mention this:

> but requires setting up a Git repository with the settings you want to share.

When I am trying to use Sync Settings I have an error which says :Secure connection to *repository_name* could not be established because of SSL problems".

How to resolve that?

Please submit a ticket at https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/requests/new with the IDE logs attached: Help | Compress Logs and Show in ...

Specify the repository URL you are using and if there is any proxy configured in the IDE. Does this repository use the self signed certificates?

Ok. When you will implement a simple thing to attach a file along with a request? Welcome to 2020.

Files can be attached at https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/requests/new .

The forum has no such feature, but you can use https://uploads.services.jetbrains.com/ for uploads and specify the file name.
