In a nutshell: http://www.svn-access-manager.org/
Basically, store all your settings in a database and generate the config files; just use a simple web front-end to edit the database and control/log changes that way. The svn access manager provides a good starting point, modify and tweak as needed. -----Original Message----- From: Cooke, Mark [mailto:mark.co...@siemens.com] Sent: Monday, May 09, 2011 11:19 AM To: users@subversion.apache.org Subject: How to control changes to path-based auth file? Dear list, I was wondering how other (probably corporate?) svn users control and log changes to your path-based auth file (and other svn web settings)? I was thinking that I could use svn and the auto-website-update FAQ (http://subversion.apache.org/faq.html#website-auto-update) to control access by allowing named users access to the relevant repo... However this seems a little clunky and 'overkill' for what we have. We also use `Trac` and there are a couple of trac-hacks: * http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/SvnAuthzAdminPlugin * http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracSvnAuthzPlugin ...that enable editing of the path-based-auth file through Trac but neither include any versioning (for auditing purposes). Can anyone recommend any other routes? For information, we use Trac and subversion, served from windows server via apache...
