You should ignore most, if not all, rancid HOWTOs out there on the
intertubes. Most of them are flat-out wrong, and outdated.

Your webserver minimally needs to have read permission to the SVN tree.
Often this entails making the webserver user a member of the rancid
group, and giving read permission on the group for the whole SVN tree
