Multi-User SVN on a Single Debian Account

Just finished setting up a multi-user subversion repository, based on the instructions found here. The catch here is that the SVN server is running on a single server-side user account, and the multi-user support is done by multiplexing on the incoming ssh rsa key. Every key gets its own artificial user name, so we can track who has been doing what. The process was fairly straight forward, just backup your .ssh directory in case you bork something, like I did:P
