Subversion: Connection is Read-Only

If you’re connecting to a Subversion repository that you think you ought to have write privileges for and you get a “Connection is Read-Only” error check your svnserve.conf file to make sure you haven’t forgotten to enable write access (Subversion repositories are read-only by default). You probably want to see a line like this in there:

auth-access = write

Not that I’d ever forget to do something like set write permissions of course….
