Question

Some users are committing svn deletes by mistake, and I would like to restrict these accidental deletes, while retaining read/write permissions. Of course, they could overwrite files with zeros, but that doesn’t accidentally.
I did some googling and found there was a python file that claimed to do this, but as svn has changed sites, the file is lost. Is there anyone who has that file, or have any other way to add a delete permission?

Answer 1

First thing’s first: do you understand that nothing is actually deleted from the repository? You can always restore any version of a file, let alone restore “deleted” ones.

You can try implementing this with a pre-commit hook. See this.
