But Russ Brown´s suggestion would work, wouldn´t it? Wewould be discarding
the commiot. Also, could we send an error message?

Just for your info, there is no sane way to modify the data that was
committed. The reason is that if you modified the data that a user
committed,
the user's local data would be out of sync with the data on the server,
leading to all kinds of trouble. Yes, there are possible solutions, but
these
are rather complicated and not in Subversion.

That is the reason why you can only reject malformatted data, but not
format
it yourself.

cheers
