If you use SVNParentPath, I think you have to have one password file
covering all repositories (and access control file).

If you do not use SVNParentPath (each repository gets its own Location
section in the Apache config), then I think you can use one password
file for all, or one password file for each repository.

The location of the password file doesn't matter, as long as Apache
has rights to read it and you give it the right path to find it.
