Checkout after access control modification

Hi,

I am using COllabnet SVN server through Apache on windows. Also, I am using tortoiseSVN as the SVN client.

I want to disable checking out of some old branches of a project. I have added appropriate rules in the svn_access_file as below:

# Blocking checkout of old branches
# Project - blocked branches
[src:/Projects/XYZ/Release1]
* =

I had already checked out this branch before I added the above mentioned access rule. When I do a right click in XYZ and select Repo Browser, XYZ/Release1 does not show up in the repository folder tree. This is what I was expecting.

If I checkout project XYZ to a new location, then Release1 folder does not get checked out as desired.

If I delete the local XYZ/Release1 folder from the location where I had checked out XYZ project, and re-sync, the folder gets checked out again, i.e I am able to checkout the folder even when I don't have any access to it?

Please advice.

- Vikram
