from memory...
setup the  LockDir directive.
set the permissions on the current LegacyCode _Directories_ as read only.
set the permissions on $LockDir/LegacyCode _Directory_ as read write by the 
user/groups you want to
allow reading from.
set the permissions on the current NewCode _Directories_ so that the 
appropriate user/groups can
read & write them.
set the permissions on $LockDir/NewCodeDirectory_ as read write by the 
user/groups you want to allow
reading from.
