[users@httpd] force 404 error
I want to know if it is possible to force a 404 error even when a file
or directory exist. I manage my website using svn. I pull a working copy
into my htdocs directory. This also creates .svn directorys with svn
meta data. Right now they return 403 forbiden. However I would like it
if they could return 404 not found when the directory is typed in to the
address bar. Such as: http://example.com/.svn The file is there, but I
want the user to see a 404.
Thanks.
Ukiah

RedirectMatch 404 \.svn
will probably work
Otherwise,
AliaseMatch \.svn /path/to/nowhere
