Re: Creating a repository

We went with a repository structure that holds multiple projects. With your
setup though, sounds like you may also want to be changing the access
permissions on a fairly constant basis, which also isn't some quick thing
that can be done through a gui. Our setup though, any developer could go in
and create a new directory for a project in the current repository. I can
see reasons though not to adopt this approach. We're also a smaller company
and technically I'm not the IT guy, but just the guy who promoted SVN and
got it all setup.

You might just want to consider if you could keep one repository for all
your projects. Otherwise, Stefan's idea of using a remote share to some
trusted users sounds like a great solution.
