WebDAV autoversioning does this...

...and I don't know if it can be configured to do this. I guess you could do this with a pre-commit hook or other authorization scheme.

Alternately, you could have a normal network share on a server, that your users connect to in a read-only fashion. And that directory on the server could be a working copy, which a server-side process would "svn up" after every commit, or every so often, to keep it updated.
