RE: New to Path-based authorization ...

Bob,

Thanks. In my case /svn is a part of the repository URL, not a directory in the repository. It's also a convention for local working directories--thus the confusion.

ALSO: I had tried just [/cm] in one test, but failed to remember that repository paths (as opposed to local working directories) are CASE SENSITIVE. Should have been [/CM].

Thanks,

Working now.

Is /svn actually a path in the repository. Or is it actually the repositories name?

Possibly you need to use:

[groups]
users = user1, user2, user3
powerusers = user4, user5

[/]
@users = rw
@powerusers = rw

[/projectC]
@users = r
@powerusers = rw
