Re: customizing svnserve for svn+ssh

My user base isn't exactly made up of power users... they already balked a little when I showed them how to configure tortoise and putty. I can only imagine handing them more customization.

I think I'll try the symlink option, but set it up with automount

thanks,
Matt

Another option is to have the client issue a different command
depending on which of the two it wants. That does involve client-side
setup --- either in ~/.subversion/config[tunnels] or in
~/.ssh/config[Host, IdentityFile, ...].
