How to respect SVN's authotiry list in repository?

Added by Nikita Pustovoytov about 14 years ago

I have a Redmine 0.9.2 installation and a Collabnet svn installation (without WebDAV) which works on svn proto. SVN repository uses path-based access authentification. How can I setup Redmine to respect SVN's authority list?

One alternative is to create an SVN user who has minimal access rights among all (e.g. everybody is allowed to see files that he is authorised to see). But such intersection sometimes is so small that repository module becomes useless.

What is wanted is to map each Redmine user to svn user and show in repository module according to this accounts' access rights. Now there is a possibility to map users (and in log thay are shown correctly) but their access isn't limitated. I've seen an Isssue #2647 with patch which should somehow resolve this problem. That patch added an option to specify as login current user name and added a field called field_security_token. What should I set in this field??

The default behavior has no finer-grained access on the repository module than "write to everything" or "read everything" or "read nothing". Concerning the patch, I can't help you with that, you might have better luck asking in the issue itself.
