Of course, it's not too tricky to configure, say, Apache to block access to all the .svn directories:

Case in point to complement my previous post:

http://fr.php.net/.svn/entries secure

http://fr2.php.net/.svn/entries open

It's not, but if you ever forget to set this config anywhere, you're hosed.

The ideal way is to not take the risk in the first place. You can't forget something you don't have to do.
