I have two sets of repos setup... common repos and user repos. On the machine acting as the svn host, I have the common repos stored in /repos while the user repos are in /home/<username>/.repos/
I'm attempting to simplify svn+ssh access such that: svn+ssh://<server>/Code/some_project_repo serves up /repos/Code/some_project_repo svn+ssh://<server>/<username>/some_project_repo serves up /home/<username>/.repos/some_project_repo I took the example of writing a shell script in /usr/local/bin that sets the umask and calls svnserve and modified it to include this path tinkering. Here is that script: ############################################## #!/bin/bash umask 002 PATH="$@" ROOT="/repos" USER=`echo $PATH | /bin/sed "s/^\/\([a-z]*\)\/.*/\1/"` PATTERN="^$USER:" if `/usr/bin/ypcat passwd | /bin/egrep -q $PATTERN` ; then ROOT="/home/$USER/.repos" PATTERN="s/\/$USER//" PATH=`echo $PATH | /bin/sed $PATTERN` fi exec /usr/bin/svnserve "$PATH" -r "$ROOT" ################################################################# It just compares the first directory passed in against the users in the NIS domain and if it finds a match, builds a new Path and root path to the repos. It works just fine on the command line when I pass it paths and echo back out the parts, but when I attempt to actually run it (by accessing a repo with svn+ssh), $PATH does not get set to the path being passed in... it is just set to '-t'. However, when I try to access a common repo (where PATH is left unadulterated), it serves up the repo just fine. Is the path being passed encoded somehow? Is there are way to access it? thanks, Matt ---------------------------------------- Matthew Beals Michigan Technological University Department of Atmospheric Sciences 1400 Townsend Drive B019a Fisher Hall Houghton, MI 49931 mjbe...@mtu.edu
