This morning, I tried to commit a revision to Subversion and found that all of a sudden I did not have permission to do so.
Can't move '/svn/db/txn-protorevs/21000-ga9.rev' to '/svn/db/revs/21/21001': Permission DeniedLooking at the revs directory, I noticed that somebody had committed the 21000th revision, and the group write permission for the new directory is missing for some reason.
drwxrwsr-x 2 svn svn 24K 2008-10-27 10:04 19 drwxrwsr-x 2 svn svn 24K 2008-12-18 07:13 20 drwxr-sr-x 2 jeff svn 4.0K 2008-12-18 11:18 21
Setting the group write permission on that directory allows me to commit, so I'm good for another 1000 revisions. But why does this happen, and what can I change to make sure it doesn't happen again?
