From HostThyself
Information here describes how to setup Subversion repository permission.

[edit] Basic HTTP Authentication
To add a password for user foo
htpasswd -m /example/path/domains/example.com/etc/svn.basic.passwd foo
-m to use MD5 encryption of the password.
[edit] Per-Directory Access Control
Format of svn-access.conf:
- The value of the section-names are either of the form [repos-name:path] or the form [path]
For example,
[repos-name:/example/branches/] foo = rw bar = r
foo has read/write permission which bar has read-only permission for the directory
[edit] Accessing repository
To access the repository using a svn client (like TortoiseSVN), use the URL like such
http://example.com/svn/example/branches
