Proposed authz file at:
http://svn.wikimedia.org/authz
The @core group there is just all 76 people who have committed to /trunk/phase3 in the last 12 months. It may need some refinement.
For the file format, see:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.serverconfig.pathbased authz.html
If we use mod_authz_svn, doesn't that mean we can't use ssh keys anymore?
We could use SSL client authentication, and require users to send their public key; however, not all clients support SSL client authentication yet. There are web server issues with SSL client auth as well.
Or are we going to switch to passwords?
V/r,
