-------------------------------------
Summary: "[/] @group = rw" not working after upgrade to SVN 1.13
Key: SVN-4865
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4865
Project: Subversion
Issue Type: Bug
Components: mod_authz_svn
Affects Versions: 1.13.0
Environment: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
Reporter: Lorenz Froihofer
After upgrading Ubuntu from 18.04 to 20.04, which includes the upgrade of
Subversion from 1.9 to 1.13, the following setup no longer works, but according
to the docs, the [/] approach should still be working.
Example illustrating the bug - no access for group "unlimited" to repository
"repo1":
{noformat}
[groups]
unlimited = user1, user2
[/]
@unlimited = rw
[repo1:/]
user3 = rw{noformat}
In this example, user1 and user2 do not have access to repo1. This was working
in SVN 1.9 and I could not find anything in the docs that this would have been
removed on the way to 1.13.
If I change the line "@unlimited = rw" to "* = r", then all users get read
access as documented, meaning that the [/] definition is still applied to all
repository-specific definitions.
The @unlimited group gets access to repo1 if I add that group explicitly to the
[repo1:/] section. However, this is only a workaround and requires quite some
effort if you have a high number of repositories.
