The monotone plugin can be used in several different ways:␊ |

Your indefero www user needs later write access to `usher.conf` and␊ |
`projects/`. There are two ways of setting this up:␊ |
␊ |
* Make the usher user the web user, for example via Apache's `suexec`␊ |
* Use acls, like this:␊ |
* Make the usher user the web user, for example via Apache's `suexec`.␊ |

In each example's last line, `usher` is the user which is executing␊ |

usher won't be able to read and write into the initial file system␊ |
