Actually, we've been working like that for years and it worked great as long
as the minor version of all the clients accessing it is the same, as soon as
the WC is upgraded, we all need to upgrade.

How we had it setup was up to now was:
- set perms for files to one user:group combo (say, developer:production)
- force user developer, force group production in Samba

and that worked, except you couldn't just go the the WC on the server itself
and run SVN commands w/o breaking permissions / working copy.

That just means you didn't set it up as you claimed, i.e. that you forced the user/group to fixed values. I guess the reason for that is that a local mount circumvents Samba. Just mount the Samba share locally, too, and use that to access the working copy.

That said, I tend to agree with others that this kind of setup is not really stable and also, using a single working copy, you waste the advantage of detached development. Imagine I make one breaking change and then leave the house for lunch. Everyone else will have to wait for me to return before they can continue. Alternatively, they revert my changes, losing hours of my work. Even worse, if I have a file open in an editor and someone changes it, I might accidentally overwrite the changes. Or, someone checks in their changes while I save a file, so their checking includes my half-finished changes.

Good luck anyway!
