Well that's my problem. Default httpd config:
User nobody
Group #-1
I'm not sure what this means really .. but it looks to me like way too
many things could be reading and writing in the repository. I know I can
configure apache to run as a specific user/group, but that doesn't really
solve the problem... I'm not sure I want to have my repository at the same
access level as all the other stuff in my web pages.
Then again .. I don't know what the implications are, but wouldn't things
be better if a specific user/group could be defined for the svn repository
area?
