Yep, that's exactly what it means. You can disable joe's read-rights on all
subfolders again.

I think ( not 100% sure ) that it only matters if you use the authz file for
multiple repositories. With svnserve, if you have one authz per repository (
ie. if you only have one repository ), you can remove the repository name as
well:
[/]
...
[/trunk]
