That hook can only work in non-ssh setups. In this case we can use the
power of apache's auth/acls.

When you have ssh access it's full write access to everything unless
you place yet another suid app involving svnserve on the server to
control access control. I think in that case http(s) access has more
benefits.

The above is true for both svn and hg AFAIS.
