Re: mod_dav_svn and Apache <Location> directive

  Hi Philip,

  IMHO, given <Location ~ "^/(?!viewvc)" > and URL '/', mod_dav_svn
should be able to understand the regular expression and treat '/' as
both the path to the repository and the path inside the repository. It
should not use raw '(?!viewvc)' data as it does now.

  I understand that this behaviour could be a problem when the
repository itself contains a viewvc/ directory and it's better to use
totally separated URL. The point was to keep the URL and not force users
to relocate their working copy.

  Thanks for your help. Regards,
