Major Description
John Peacock is still working on an improved version of the patch but asked me
to file an issue anyway.
The current version of the patch is available at
http://www.contactor.se/~dast/svn/archive-2003-09/0970.shtml
Log message:
Implement two new options to the 'svnadmin create' command to explicitely
create a new repository with rights appropriate for either
1) exclusive access by a single user/process
2) shared access by all members of an existing system group
This is likely to only be relevant to Unix-like operating systems,
where chmod(), setgid(), and setuid() are meaningful.
* configure.in
Add tests to check for existance of chmod, setgid, and setuid
* subversion/svnadmin/main.c
(#include) - need svn_private_config.h in order to get autoconf #define's
(enum),(options_table),(cmd_table): add owner_id, group_id to option tables
(subcommand_create): Add logic to get system UID and GID and switch
current process to those values before calling svn_repos_create()
* doc/book/book/ch05.xml
(svn-ch-5-sect-2): Add paragraph and link to discussion of --owner and
--group options in svn-ch-5-sect-5.
(svn-ch-5-sect-5): Document the use of --owner and --group to create
the repository with specific rights for limited repository access.
