svnsync is handy, but does not preserve any hook scripts. In fact, the
svnsync repository is inappropriate for using as anything *but* an
svnsync target.

Running a 'svnadmin hotcopy' of the svnsync repository gives you
something workable, but you need to think about how to copy the hook
scripts and configurations back. Unfortunately, unless it's changed,
even 'svnadmin hotcopy' skips right over any symlinks, so caution is
necessary.
