[BOOK] Minor term confusion

Hi.

I just read parts of your subversion book and find it a really great
source of information. But in Chapter 6, Section 5
'Supporting Multiple Repository Access Methods'
(http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch06s05.html)
I found the Term 'group SUID bit' in the sentence 'A good workaround is
to set the group SUID bit on the repository's db directory'.

AFAIK the correct name for the bit you mean is the 'SGID bit' aka
'set-group-ID-on-execution bit'. See also 'man chmod'.
Sorry for not providing a XML-sources patch.

Regards,
Christian Schroeder
