file:/// protocol based svn repository questions

[Jeff Marver]

Hi all,

 

We're using SharpSVN.SvnReposito​ryClient.CreateRepos​itory to create file:/// 
protocol based svn repositories on shared Windows network drives. Can anyone 
tell me the exact permissions a Windows user will need to fully interact with 
the repository? We're recently run into a user that was able to lock a file but 
couldn't do a commit, the error indicated that the commit failed and a .tmp 
file couldn't be moved since it already existed in txn-current? The customer 
indicated that they had read and write access??

 

Also, I've seen quite a few posts on the Internet suggesting that sharing a 
file:/// protocol based svn repository is not recommended for multiple users 
and even discouraged. Can anyone confirm or refute this information? 

 

Thanks!

 

Jeff
