Aha! "svnlook changed" seems to be what I have looked for. But wouldn't
the expression above prevent the creation of tags too? If I create a
tag, I get output like:
A project1/tags/tag1/
A project1/tags/tag1/Datei1
A project1/tags/tag1/fdflush.c
A project1/tags/tag1/modprobe.c
So I should probably allow the commit if I find a line of the form
A project1/tags/tag1/
(and possibly
D project1/tags/tag1/
if we allow tag deletion)
