+<usage>
+ <p>If a DAV repository is configured using a regular expression
+ match (such as <directive module="core">LocationMatch</directive>)
+ then <module>mod_dav</module> will not be able to find the root of
+ the repository from the pathname alone. Third-party providers (for
+ example, Subversion's <a
+ href="https://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.mod_dav_svn.conf.html">mod_dav_svn</a>)
+ may fail to handle requests without the correct repository root.</p>
+
+ <p>To allow providers to work correctly in such a configuration,
+ <directive>DavBasePath</directive> must be used.</p>
