What are you looking for, exactly? If you need to restrict all access to a path, including read access, then you need to use Subversion's built-in path-based authorization or possibly some Apache configuration tweaks. The links you were given describe this very well - it's up to you to read & understand how they apply to your environment. If you need to restrict write access, you can use path-based authorization or a hook script. One script commonly used for this is svnperms.py svnperms.py requires more setup, but allows for wildcards and finer-grained control. If you're asking someone to show you a reference implementation, everyone's implementation of access control is a little different; it's best if you understand *how* it works and then how you can apply it to your environment. > On 7/1/2011 8:11 AM, Tony Sweeney wrote: >> >> Sorry, that's a common British idiom which obviously doesn't travel. >> Racehorses vary in strength, speed, stamina and temperament; some race >> horses do better in "heavier going" (i.e. a softer, muddier track), some >> race faster on a dry course, and of course racecourses vary in length. >> So there's no single answer to "which is the best horse", as there are >> "horses for courses".
