That hook can only work in non-ssh setups. In this case we can use the power of apache's auth/acls. When you have ssh access it's full write access to everything unless you place yet another suid app involving svnserve on the server to control access control. I think in that case http(s) access has more benefits. The above is true for both svn and hg AFAIS. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
