The access control file is simply a text file. It should be fairly simple to read from a database, and create the text file from the database. In fact, most database programs have triggers that can trigger a program to execute whenever a database change is detected. My experience has been that when the text file gets changed under svnserve, the access is also changed without a restart of the svnserve. This is a bit different from http/apache which requires a restart of the httpd daemon. Yes, this isn't a direct database control situation, but it will do what you want: A change in the access control database changes the access control in Subversion. And, it really shouldn't be that difficult to do. -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
