title: Creating HTTP Alias for Subversion repos directories
body: <p>I would like to grant read/write access for one of our development team to access only a particular sub directory in a SVN repository. I achieved this using the directive "AuthzSVNAccessFile" in subversion.conf(httpd).</p>
  
  <p>Let Say I am having the following directory structure in my svn repo:<br/>
   - Workspace<br/>
  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;- Branches<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
           - Mobile<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
               - App<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
                 - Phase1<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
                 - Phase2<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
                 - Phase3 (This is the directory I want to grant)
                 .....</p>
  
  <p>Phase3 can be accessible by our dev team using the below url<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
            <a href="http://mydomain.com/svn/Workspace/Branches/Mobile/App/Phase3" rel="nofollow">http://mydomain.com/svn/Workspace/Branches/Mobile/App/Phase3</a></p>
  
  <p>How do I create a short url like the following to access the above one.<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
            <a href="http://mydomain.com/svn/Phase3" rel="nofollow">http://mydomain.com/svn/Phase3</a></p>
  
  <p>Please help me to get this done. Thanks.</p>
  
  <p>My apache configurations are below:<br/>
  &lt;Location /Phase3&gt;<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
     DAV svn<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
     ReWriteEngine On<br/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
