In my opinion svn is not the right tool to maintain system files
directly. However people keep trying to use systems like svn and cvs
before it for that purpose. But that is not the job they were
designed to do and so they are not good at it.

Without code modifications you can't.
Try looking at the infrastructures site. Try looking at radmind.

With code modifications you could take a look at the meta-data
patches/branch.
See http://svn.collab.net/viewcvs/svn/branches/meta-data-versioning/ for
the branch; see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=subversion-dev&m=111459962412224&w=2 for
patches against 1.2.0rc2 (which apply with a small fuzz also against the
released version).
Or I'd suggest really looking at fsvs; a 1.0.1 is due as soon as I get that
annoying bug that bites me the last week :-)
Regards,
Phil
