I'm not an svnserve expert, please don't expect help there. All I can say is, that you could try to set up subversion within apache. Then it should work since we're using it daily.
Re: Transaction author without requiring password
Yes I did, and this is my deduction also. The user names won't make it to the pre-commit unless they're required to authenticate by svnserve first.

Re: Transaction author without requiring password
I tried this, but an author is not passed unless auth-access is in use AFAICT. So $USER in your example is always empty.

Maybe something like this put in place as a pre-commit hook? #!/bin/bash SVNLOOK=/usr/bin/svnlook REPOPATH=$1 TRANSACTION=$2 # get user USER=`$SVNLOOK author $REPOPATH -t $TRANSACTION` # check if the user is empty if[ -z "$USER" ]; then exit 1 exit 0
