    [SOLVED] Subversion Administration

    I am accessing my subversion repository from svn+ssh://
    I set up a new group called for the repository, and then I added two users to this group, harry and sally.

    Here is the problem.

    harry logs in and commits a file
    After commit a ton of the files have been saved by harry, and have the new owner and group:
    group: harry
    owner: harry

    sally no longer has access to the repository!

    Is there any way to prevent the group from changing when harry commits a file?

    I tried just writing a file with VIM after logging in via ssh with one of the users, and this does NOT change the group.
    subversion is doing something special that changes the permissions.

    I found the solution. All you have to do is run this command on the repository
    Code:
    sudo chmod -R g+rws myproject
