Re: SVN freeze/lock, SVNADMIN control

You can use a pre-commit hook that will still allow people to check
files out, work with them, but not allow them to commit those files.
That's what we do when we want to do a freeze.

If you want to prevent users from actually checking out the code, use
the svnserve configuration file to completely limit access. Subversion
comes with a hook called commit-access-control.pl that does exactly
what you want.
