Yes, all of the "same caveats" still apply. The short list (these
are explained in more detail at your URL) of best practises.
- wrapping the svn and svnserve binaries with a script that
sets the umask to 002
- all files and directories under the repository are in the
subversion group with permissions ug+rw
- all directories under the repository have the setgid bit;
find repository -type d -exec chmod g+s {} \;
- all users requiring write access belong to the subversion
group
- don't backup the repository; dump it somewhere and backup
the dump instead
Missing any of those steps results in pain, no matter whether I'm
using BDB or FSFS.
