RE: LDAP and LIMIT params in Locations

Ahh cheers. So the "GET", "PROPFIND" etc are Apache oriented rather than specific to SVN itself?

Great.

The limit/limitexcept sections allow you to have separate read/only and read/write groups.

For example (Group xxx has read/write access, Group yyy only has read access):

  # These groups have write access
  <LimitExcept GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
    Require ldap-group CN=xxx,OU=Groups,DC=company,DC=com
  </LimitExcept>

  # These groups have read access
  <Limit GET PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT>
    Require ldap-group CN=xxx,OU=Groups,DC=company,DC=com
    Require ldap-group CN=yyy,OU=Groups,DC=company,DC=com
  </Limit>

The apache docs have more detailed info. (This is really an apache related question,
and has nothing to do with Subversion itself.)
