SV: Start update hook

Generally the order in time should be something like:

User action: Command invoked
Hook runs: start-command
User action: User selects or confirms something in a dialogue to
actually perform the command
Hook runs: pre-command
User action: None. The command is being executed by the system.
Hook runs: post-command

Since "update to revision" fits the pattern above it makes sense to have
the possibility to run a script before the dialog is even shown. (I'd
say.)
