We know this. That's why we want to check the user's access first and then fetch. I thought the get_file method in myscm.py can first do the check for loggedin user's access in our scm/repo and then fetch if user has access. >>Are your permissions set up per-file, or is it more that they can't access certain hierarchies of the tree? The access rule can be on a file or on hierarchies.
