[cfe-dev] LLVM, SVN, Permission Errors

[mats petersson via cfe-dev]

If you did, for example, sudo svn ... , that would indeed explain the
problems you are seeing. In my experience with svn (which is by no means
"expert", nor "novice") it will set the file permissions so that you can
write to all files as the user that checked out the files [although I think
it may allow you to store files or directories with read-only permission,
but that would be a "only if you ask for that"].
