There are two options:

Run svnserve as a server, and authenticate using SASL. Configure SASL to authenticate against LDAP.

Access the repository over ssh. Create ssh accounts for all users (perhaps automatically), and have these accounts authenticate against LDAP using PAM. Put all users into a single group, and make the repository files owned by that group.
