I would assume the whole of the above Apache configuration block is
wrapped in a <VirtualHost> block and so should only affect one
site-name. As such, "Location /" may well be valid - after all, the
hostname Lukas gave was "svn.rawip.org", which indicates that the
hostname might only be expected to serve up SVN repositories.
