Was thinking last week that it would be cool to have an SVNDirectoryIndex
mod_dav_svn directory ala the stock Apache DirectoryIndex directive. Syntax
could be:
SVNDirectoryIndex on FILENAME ...
SVNDirectoryIndex off
Behavior would be that when fielding a GET request for a directory, Subversion
would consult this configuration value. If "off" (the default), it would behave
as it does today, auto-generating a directory listing. If "on ..." it would
check for the presence of one of the FILENAME files in the directory (via
svn_fs_check_path() or somesuch) and, upon finding such a file, would issue a
browser redirect to the URL of the file.
