The "InheritableAutoProps" page has been changed by pburba: http://wiki.apache.org/subversion/InheritableAutoProps?action=diff&rev1=2&rev2=3 Comment: Mention cmpilato's recent issue #4124 work as it applies to this feature "Well-Behaved Clients" and "Trust, But Verify" The configuration dictated by the "svn:inheritable-*" properties can at best be only a suggestion to the client. Older clients will obviously not understand the meaning of these properties and as open source software it is relatively easy for a malicious user to modify a client to ignore these special properties. Given this reality, server-side enforcement of desired behaviors (where possible, and often via hook scripts) is still strongly recommended. + + The new "ephemeral transaction properties" feature (see http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4124) provide a simple way for servers to disallow commits from clients which don't understand svn:inheritable-auto-props. Thus there is no new capability string required for this feature. }}} === Auto-Props Format === The values of the svn:inheritable-auto-props property are as per the existing run-time configuration auto-props, they contain "any number of key-value pairs in the format ''PATTERN'' = ''PROPNAME''=''VALUE''[;''PROPNAME''=''VALUE''...], where ''PATTERN'' is a file pattern that matches one or more filenames and the rest of the line is a semicolon-delimited set of property assignments. (If you need to use a semicolon in your property's name or value, you can escape it by doubling it.)")<<FootNote(Thank you 'Version Control with Subversion' book, http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn-book.html#svn.advanced.confarea)>>
