svnserve.conf(5)					      svnserve.conf(5)

NAME
       svnserve.conf - Repository configuration file for svnserve

SYNOPSIS
       repository-path/conf/svnserve.conf

DESCRIPTION
       svnserve.conf  controls	the  behavior of the svnserve daemon on a per-
       repository basis.  It is located in the conf subdirectory of the repos‐
       itory.

       The  overall structure of the file is the same as the structure of Sub‐
       version user configuration files.  At the top level are sections, which
       are  specified  by  words  in  square brackets; inside each section are
       variable definitions of the form "variable = value".   Lines  beginning
       with  '#'  are  ignored.	 svnserve.conf currently uses only one section
       named "general", and supports the following variables:

       anon-access = none|read|write
	    Determines the access  level  for  unauthenticated	users.	 write
	    access  allows  all repository operations.	read access allows all
	    operations except committing  and  changing	 revision  properties.
	    none access allows no access.  The default level is read.

       auth-access = none|read|write
	    Determines	the  access  level  for authenticated users, using the
	    same access levels as above.  The default level is write.

       password-db = filename
	    Sets the location of the password database.	 filename may be rela‐
	    tive to the repository conf directory.  There is no default value.
	    The password database has the same overall format  as  this	 file.
	    It uses only one section "users"; each variable within the section
	    is a username, and each value is a password.

       authz-db = filename
	    The authz-db option controls the  location	of  the	 authorization
	    rules  for path-based access control.  filename may be relative to
	    the repository conf directory.  There is no default value.	If you
	    don't specify an authz-db, no path-based access control is done.

       realm = realm-name
	    Sets the authentication realm of the repository.  If two reposito‐
	    ries have the same password database, they should  have  the  same
	    realm,  and	 vice  versa; this association allows clients to use a
	    single cached password  for	 several  repositories.	  The  default
	    realm value is the repository's uuid.

EXAMPLE
       The  following  example	svnserve.conf allows read access for authenti‐
       cated users, no access for anonymous users, points to a passwd database
       in the same directory, and defines a realm name.

	[general]
	anon-access = none
	auth-access = read
	password-db = passwd
	realm = My First Repository

       The file "passwd" would look like:

	[users]
	joeuser = joepassword
	jayrandom = randomjay
