Can you please detail? I could not get this to work. I set up sudoers
and everything. But I cant get svn to run sudo.

repository
========
/home/joe/repos/testmodule

/etc/sudoers
==========
john localhost@localdomain = (joe) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/svnserve

then i tried
1)
/home/john/.subversion
===================
[tunnel]
sudossh = ssh sudo -u joe

ran
svn checkout svn+sudossh://localhost.localdomain/home/joe/repos/testmodule

gives the follow error:
ssh: illegal option -- u

I dont know if this is a bug. Why the ssh command is being parsed?
Instead of just running sudo -u joe svnserve -t?

2)
.bashrc
======
export PATH = ./:$PATH

/home/john/svnserve
=================
#!/bin/bash
echo "hello"
sudo -u joe /usr/bin/svnserve -t

then ran
svn checkout svn+ssh://localhost.localdomain/home/joe/repos/testmodule

got the error
svn: No repository found in
'svn+ssh://localhost.localdomain/home/joe/repos/testmodule'

How did you do it? I dont seem to understand what svn is doing when I
run "svn+..."

thanks,
Krishna
