Which means you are using svnserve. Assuming you are using version 1.3 or
higher of subversion, you should be able to create path based read-write
permissions for users.

Please have a look at
http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.3_releasenotes.htmland look under
New Features: Path based authorization for svnserve.

In short, your svnserve.conf should look like:

[general]
password-db = <user file>
realm = my realm

anon-access = none [assuming you don't want anonymous users to access it]
auth-access = write

authz-db = <acl file>

Point <acl file> to a file that if of the following template:

[repository-root:/]
user1 = r
user2 = rw

[repository-root:/dir1/]
user1 = rw
user2 = rw

etc.

Hope this helps.
