I'm hosting a svn+ssh repo on a OpenBSD box and wondered if it is possible to deny access to any other programs despite svnserve? The reason is that I want to restrict access to parts of the repo with path-based authentication, but having access to arbitrary shell commands defies the use of this as someone could just download the whole db.

You could look into restricting the programs ran via ssh. The following shows you how to do so when using keys for authentication . I am sure with a little more looking into the man pages it can be done when using password for auth as well.
