I'll start a new thread on the dev list.

First of all, authentication that is set right now is not going to be affected by what the configuration was when someone did a commit. That said, I can't explain what you are seeing. What you are basically saying is, I wrote a file to a folder I had permissions to, then when I didn't have any permission to it and I could still see the file. That just not the way this stuff works.

Although I guess it is possible if you had a misconfiguration that the repository was written to wrong. But, I can't see what that is. Since authorizations are path based not user based. In otherwords, if I am authorized to see / then I can see all the data in /, not just the data that I committed.

Perhaps you can show us your full configuration file and give us some example of what you see and who you are logged in as.
