Take a look at subversion/mod_dav_svn/dav_svn.h*. It lists a the
exported functions in mod_dav_svn. The dav_svn_split_uri function
is of particular interest (read the docstring). I've been meaning
to dedicate some time to mod_authz_svn, but I just can't seem to be
able to allocate some to this. Taking one of the httpd authz
modules as the basis, you should be able to implement this in very
little time though.

And FWIW, the url you pasted above needs to be accessible to all
users, read or write. This is due to how svn up works.

HTH,

Sander

*) We should really move the dav_svn.h to include/mod_dav_svn.h, since
   this is clearly a public header file which (authz) module authors
   can use.
