As I mentioned I am new to Linux so will see what docs I can find for
the VFS in samba. This sounds like the perfect solution.

Thanks

That could be done, and fairly easily, with Samba's "vfs" module
support. I've been thinking about this on and off for more than a year.

The simplest implementation would just share a Subversion working copy,
hiding the .svn directories and adding appropriate hooks to commit
changes. You'd probably only want to track metadata operations (create,
delete, rename) and open/close on files -- you'd commit on a close
following an open-for-write, maybe checking if any changes were actually

made.
