Just found cmpilato's recent blog entry on "Subversion 1.5 WebDAV
Write-Thru Proxies"
(ihttp://blogs.open.collab.net/svn/2007/10/yesterday-at-th.html).
Awesome!!

That answers my question, but I thought others might be
interested. As far as I'm concerned, my mirroring solution
search is now over. And no more "svn switch --relocate" hackery
to worry about.

Minor suggestion: You developers might want to announce your
blogs to the users@ list. I think I'm following most of your
blogs now for myself, but finding them was non-trivial. I only
discovered Ben's by noticing an entry show up as a top
del.icio.us/popular/scm link. Maybe you could even point
something like rss2email to the list with subscriptions to your
feeds. Not sure if your mailing list software has "topics", but
this would make [blog] a good candidate.
