That's fine and good. The FAQ says:

http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#reposperms

"Try to have as few users access the repository as possible. For
example, run apache or 'svnserve -d' as a specific user, and make the
repository wholly owned by that user."

chown -R accomplishes making the repository wholly owned by the user.
