As a sidenote: yes, this has come up on both dev@ and users@ list quite 
often. When an issue got filed and I added some comments about having 
custom config options, this was rejected right away - so I couldn't wait 
for that to happen soon (if ever).
btw: the issue I'm talking about is 1974
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1974

About how I think this could be done without breaking older clients at all:
define a file named 'svnrepoconfig' which resides in the repository 
root. It's treated like a normal file, unless it's
1. located in the repository root
2. has a special new svn property set (e.g. svn:repoconfig = yes)
If those are true, then it's not a normal file anymore but one that 
get's transferred on every update/commit. The client will store it 
inside the config area, maybe in a subfolder called 'repoconfigs' right 
beside 'auth' folder.
To reduce the data traffic, that file could even be 'versioned' like 
other working copy files, with the difference that it's stored in the 
config area.

That way,
- older clients won't break
- with mod_authz_svn you can set the access rights so that not everyone 
can change those settings
- you don't need to contact the repository to get the configs - they're 
stored locally so every client can access them immediatley if needed.

... this way the client could checkout that directory to the
.subversion/defaults/<REPO-UUID>, and we could have several configs
for several repositories. Also it is trivial to find which config
belongs to which repository.

Oops.  Sorry to follow up to myself to rapidly, but I made a rather
glaring error.  It turns out that Max Bowsher actually *isn't* human,
but a well-tuned code-fixin' issue-slammin' rock-em-sock-em robot.

Ouch.  I hope that in fact you are mistaking memories of particular
negative experiences as just "experience with this list" -- that the
dev-folk here aren't quite so bad in this way.  Certainly if a single
intelligent person raises a strong and valid concern about an idea, it
behooves the rest of us to pay attention.  But the dev-folk here are

Ok then - let me clarify my intended meaning:

"I'm annoyed at the uniform characterization of Subversion developers as 
stubborn and unhelpful.

Rather than complain at this, I'd rather demonstrate that it is not true, by 
either reopening past discussions and helping them to a satisfactory 
conclusion, or at least explaining why a feature was not persued."

I would venture that one example is the very tone that you're taking
in the conversation. I'm not reading it as a "hey, let's explore this
issue", but focusing more on Steve's reactions and commentary itself.
Typically, meta-comments like that are taken personally rather than as
a simple technical discussion.

Repository-based client configuration schemes [was: tsvn:logwidth in svn repository]

This makes a lot of sense so adapting from Steve's and Jani's thoughts then, 
how about adding a property that points to the configuration area for the 
directory you are working on:

When setting up the project set the svn:configdir property of the project's 
directory to point at the project's configuration directory:
   svn propset svn:configdir ./config file:///path/to/repo/path/to/project/

When a checking out or updating a part of the project the server checks that 
each directory has the server checks that svn:configdir has been set or 
calculates a virtual property based on the parent directory's svn:configdir:
   svn co file:///path/to/repo/path/to/project/component/
   A blah.c
   Checked out revision 22
   Checking out configuration file:///path/to/repo/path/to/project/config
   Checked out revision 22
The configuration gets checked out into:
   ~/.subversion/defaults/<UUID>/path/to/project/config

When committing files, the svn:configdir would be looked up from the 
committables(*) and resolved to the relevent ~/.subversion subdir.  This 
directory would be used as the default configuration for the rest of the operation.

This scheme is pretty flexible and allows per-project repository-backed, 
configuration defaults.  The scheme lifts Steve's requirement that the config 
directrory have specific name which I believe is closer to the subversion 
ethos, but takes the essence of Jani's and Steve's ideas and adapts them to a 
project level rather than repository level.  If the value of svn:configdir was 
allowed to be any url then the scheme would even support having multiple 
'project' repositories sharing a single 'configuration' repository, a feature 
which might well be useful to some.

Sorry for the drive by - one of these days I'll brush off my C skills and have 
a play with the code properly but for now ideas are the best I can do.

Rob

Actually, I do have a mild negative sentiment towards a "repository
configuration" mehacnism, because almost any kind of "repository
configuration" could, conceivably, want to vary within the repository. 
For instance, the Apache repository might very well have different
projects which prefer different log widths.

So, repository configuration seems like a good way to introduce
configuration values with the wrong scope.  I would rather see these
things implemented as directory properties (as tsvn:logwidth already
is), and make it easier to apply directory properties to whole
subtrees.  I'm not sure if property inheritance is the right mechanism
(because it creates so many corner cases); perhaps the poor man's
approach of auto-props is sufficient.

Of course, auto-props is also a feature we implemented in the wrong
scope.  I would like to see auto-props redone as a directory property.

Indeed, he's forcibly suppressing any contemplation of letting the server 
execute arbitrary code on the client.

Eager as I am to help further the development of successful relationships

And what do you think does "So, let me suppress that idea" mean? 
Suppressing means (at least in my dictionary) not allowing something by 
force.

Well, that's a rather negative attitude.

Check the comment from Greg Hudson.
In my experience with this list, as soon as one Subversion dev doesn't 
like an idea I can give up trying to convince them - it won't be done.
