Interesting,

Can you (or anyone else) provide a few scenario examples from your
experience (not related to horses and besides those given in the
svnbook.red-bean)?
What are you looking for, exactly?

If you need to restrict all access to a path, including read access,
then you need to use Subversion's built-in path-based authorization or
possibly some Apache configuration tweaks. The links you were given
describe this very well - it's up to you to read&  understand how they
apply to your environment.

If you need to restrict write access, you can use path-based
authorization or a hook script. One script commonly used for this is
svnperms.py svnperms.py requires more setup, but allows for wildcards
and finer-grained control.

If you're asking someone to show you a reference implementation,
everyone's implementation of access control is a little different;
it's best if you understand *how* it works and then how you can apply
it to your environment.

Sorry, that's a common British idiom which obviously doesn't travel.
Racehorses vary in strength, speed, stamina and temperament; some race
horses do better in "heavier going" (i.e. a softer, muddier track), some
race faster on a dry course, and of course racecourses vary in length.
So there's no single answer to "which is the best horse", as there are
"horses for courses".  Makes sense now?  Which approach you take to (3)
depends on the existing customer set up.  There are a number of
tradeoffs, so there's no single right answer.

Tony.

Thanks for the quick response.

However I have no clue what you mean by Horses for courses.

and I certainly cannot reply to my clients question with such an answer.

1. We are creating branch out of previous branch, if we want to delete
a old branch or archive it how it will impact the current branch ?

It won't

2. There is no limit on number of branches you can create, is this
true ?

Effectively.

3. What is the best way to lock the Trunk so only certain users can
access it, using Hook Script or using admin tool?

Horses for courses.


Phil
