Hi,

we used up to and including svn 1.9 an authz file of the format

[groups]
company = user1, user2, user3
customer = customer1, customer2

# company can read-write on everything
[/]
@company = rw

[project1:/]
@customer = r

[project2:/]

This gave company full rights on both project1 and project2 and customer reading rights on project1. Now, with svn 1.10, company cannot access anything (customer can still read project 1). So apparently, only the ACLs in the most specific matching block are used and parent ACLs not at all.

Even like this, within a single repository, this is the case:

[project1:/]
@company = rw

[project1:/trunk/src]
@customer = r

It results, that in trunk/src and below ONLY customer can read, company has no rights.

Is this really an intentional change? It results in our case in a huge amount of duplicated ACL entries and seems a rather drastic change regarding backwards compatibility.

Best regards,
