Hello,
I am using mod_dav_svn with Apache2 in combination with a SVN repository containing symbolic links. When a URL pointing to a symbolic link is accessed, the web server does not follow this link, but provides a text file with the content "link [path to file or directory]".
I was wondering if there is a possibility to make mod_dav_svn actually not providing this text file but the contents of the linked file directly?
Background:An installer is downloading several files for installation from the repository over the web server whereas the flexibility to specify a certain repository revision via the "!svn/bc/" special syntax is used, without the need for the installer to be aware of the SVN repo itself. For the installer, this address is just an ordinary URL. This worked well for a couple of years, but now symbolic links have been used in the repository which is causing the trouble for the installer now as it gets not the actual file, but the text representation of a symbolic link.
As I am not a member of this mailing list, I would appreciate to be set in CC upon reply.
Thank you very much in advance for your support and kind regards, René -- Sincerely yours, M.Eng. *René Schwarz* m...@rene-schwarz.com https://www.rene-schwarz.com
