Re: What is the fix for bug 2486??

Thanks Garret,

Forgive me, I am just a newbie user, -what did the fix within svnserve affect -what difference did it make to usage? Is the below "workaround" still required (grant read to all on root, and then revoke to all on subdir, and then grant...)

I am running 1.3.2

I believe that issue referred to the support in svnserve, and you
should be able to pick up the fix by upgrading to a newer release of
svn. There still appears to be a problem with mod_authz_svn, as one
of the relevant tests is marked as XFail for dav.
