cas + apache + svn

[Matt Smith]

It *is* possible to protect SVN's simple browser access with CAS.

It *is not* possible to protect SVN access from non-browser access, such as
the command line svn tools, or TortoiseSVN, etc.

Personally, I use Kerberos as the primary authentication system.  My CAS
server authenticates against Kerberos, and my web apps are CAS-enabled.  My
non-web apps are Kerberos-enabled.  I use mod_auth_kerb to protect my SVN
repository.  The svn command line tools, and TortoiseSVN support kerberized
("negotiate" or SPNEGO) access.

I use CAS to protect Trac (or any other web based subversion display such as
ViewVCS).
