Re: Hook script to restrict access on per user basis?

Hello Jennifer,

You haven't replied to the list, so I'm so I'm bringing everything back
to the list.

Hook scripts are special programs that Subversion executes on certain
specific operations. The one you are interested in is the pre-commit
hook script.

Check your repository's hooks/ folder, to find templates in there.
Depending on your OS, you'll need to rename the existing pre-commit hook
template to *.sh or *.bat (Linux/Windows).

Then, following the instructions in the template, you'll call
svnperms.py with the arguments as listed in svnperms.py. svnperms.py
will return some kind of error to the caller, which will in turn return
a code to Subversion, which will turn around again and tell the client
whether or not his commit was successful.

I hope this was useful. If not, ask again, and someone will clarify.

Bye !
François
