As Bill mentioned Trac is a good tool for issue tracking. It also allows
you to get RSS feeds of modifications to particular files and folders
which pretty much sounds like some of what you want.

Subversion doesn't support this. You could implement commit
notifications using hook scripts, but there's no good way to get
notifications of other actions.

You might want to take a look at Traq (http://www.edgewall.com/trac/).
It provides a web-interface to Subversion, along with integrated issue
tracking and a wiki.
