I've got a mod_dav_svn apache webserver serving up a big tree of svn. I need to move a sub tree to a new server (not svn). Is there any way to use some kind of rewrite to redirect all of the sub tree so people visiting old URLs will be redirected to the new URLs?

Example my tree is like this

folder a file1.html file2.html b file3.html file4.html 

I can currently access these, served by mod_dav_svn at

http://svn.server/svn/folder/a/ http://svn.server/svn/folder/a/file1.html http://svn.server/svn/folder/a/file2.html http://svn.server/svn/folder/b/ http://svn.server/svn/folder/b/file3.html http://svn.server/svn/folder/b/file4.html 

I want to copy b to some other server so that those files are accessible at new URLs. eg.

http://new.server/someplace/b/ http://new.server/someplace/b/file3.html http://new.server/someplace/b/file4.html 

And I want redirects from the old places to redirect to the new places

http://svn.server/svn/folder/b/ -> http://new.server/someplace/b/ http://svn.server/svn/folder/b/file3.html -> http://new.server/someplace/b/file3.html http://svn.server/svn/folder/b/file4.html -> http://new.server/someplace/b/file4.html 

The problem is, mod_dav_svn is controlling everything below /svn on svn.server Is there a way to configure apache or mod_dav_svn to do this redirect of the b subfolder ond the old server?

Should be able to redirect before mod_dav_svn takes over.

Redirect permanent /svn/folder/b/ http://new.server/someplace/b/
