Re: Using * in AuthzSVNAccessFile file

You can’t put in arbitrary wildcards, but you don’t have to specify a
repository.

If you use one project per repository (which I highly recommend), then you
can just define

[/trunk/passwords]
*=

or similar to set up permissions for the same path in all projects.
