Authz: checkout private subdirectory of public directory

[Christopher Ness <ch...@nesser.org>]

Hi *,

I'm not a member of this list, please reply all or keep me in the CC list.
Thanks.

I have a directory structure which perhaps I've mangled or set up in a way
not planned for.  This is the authz file excerpt:

## Do not allow anonymous users to view my branches
[/branches/cgness]
* =
cgness = rw

[/branches/cgness/NetWS]
* = r
cgness = rw

[/branches/cgness/NetWS/private]
* =
cgness = rw


Basically, I don't want people to be able to read my branches directory
but I do want to expose one project in my branch (NetWS) with one
sub-directory that is restricted - which happens to hold authentication
info.

Is it possible to expose an internal directory with restricted directories
around it in AUTHZ?

  cgness (Restricted)
    |
    -- NetWS (Open)
        |
        -- private (Restricted)

Both my windows client and linux client give output which `ls` sees the
private directory, but `co`, `up` and `st` don't seem to see the 'private'
directory above.

What I'm doing is trying to check out NetWS which doesn't require
authentication.  I'm a user (cgness) which has access to private, so I
would expect the private directory to be checked out as well, but it is
not.

A direct check out of the private directory is successful as my user.

I'm using https with Authz.
Am I doing something silly with my Authz config or is this a bug?
