Thanks Ryan for your reply. Sorry I was NOT clear and let me elaborate it further.
This is an issue only while I try to commit via any GUI client/rep browser. Currently I am using Tortoise and I could reproduce it there. Some people also saw it in Eclipse which I am yet to reproduce. Via command line I have no issue at all to commit any ^.ht files. So i guess apache definitely is NOT the culprit here!!? I see some thread around this as well on the google: http://languor.us/eclipse-subversion-ra-layer-request-failed-could-not-read-status-line-errors Or is it more of a compatibility issue ? I am using Apache/2.2.15 (Unix), subversion-1.1.4-2, tortoise 1.6.0 Thanks/- On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 5:48 PM, Ryan Schmidt < subversion-20...@ryandesign.com> wrote: > > On Feb 2, 2011, at 05:30, debu --- Debajit kataki wrote: > > > I have an Apache-SVN server and what i have noticed that any folder with > .htaccess file or even ^.ht wont get committed in SVN. > > > > I understand that this is an expected security behavior by apache, but > what I am looking here a proven workaround, so that my users can commit > those folder also which has such file in it. > > > > Below is my current config: > > [snip] > > > <Files ~ "^\.ht"> > > Order allow,deny > > Deny from all > > Satisfy All > > </Files> > > I have basically the same snippet in my httpd.conf, globally, for all > vhosts, and it does not prevent me from committing .htaccess files to my > repository.
