Protect a folder with special password

[Rainer Oder <od...@big-guy.com>]

Hi all,

I'm a starter with svn and just use it installed on sourceforge for my
project. We have three admins working on it and still there is a folder
where I want to backup stuff in, that is not supposed to be read by
everybody. Is there a quick command that allows me to add password to a
folder so that nobody can co oder ci anything?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Cheers,
Rainer

You can restrict access to a particular directory to only a select
bunch of users or groups via the per-directory access controls. Not
knowing what interface Sourceforge offers for editing this file, I
can't get you much farther than that. The configuration file format is
described at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html#svn.serverconfig.httpd.authz.perdir
, scroll down just past example 6.3.
