How setup svn to simultaneously use webdav (www-data user) and a local non root user

[Lamotte Denis <dl...@bamboo.lu>]

We have a server (debian woody) with svn installed and  apache2 with the
webdav module.
It work fine as soon  I just work with it.
Any local user on the server that are not root cannot administrate the svn
server.

Is there a possibility to run the webdav server on a different user then the
Standard www-data user?
Each time a new file is created the owner:group are www-data:www-data.
But I have no right to use then. The ue of the sticky bit change nothing.
Will it be possible to have me:www-data or www-data:mygroup ?

Best regards
Lamotte Denis

Yes, in Apache's config file.

Might be easier to not use the sticky bit but "chmod -R g+w 
/path/to/repos" and add those users who need to access the repos to the 
www-data group.
