You don't want to do this in pre-commit, because your propset will
then cause your original commit to be out of date. Instead, you would
do this in post-commit, probably using a 20-line bindings script. The
real trick, though, would be making sure that your post-commit hook
doesn't fire off for commits generated by itself -- that's a nice way
to potentially wind up in an endless loop.
