Feature Request: Identify new "copy" entries from pre-commit hook

From: Paul Dugas <paul_at_dugas.cc>

Hi all,

I want to be able to identify new entries being added to a repository that
are copies, rather than just straight adds, from within a pre-commit hook.
 I posted a question to this list looking for help but only got "me too"
responses. I was about to enter it as a feature request in the issue
tracker. Figured I'd post one more time.

I'm trying to enforce some rules on the layout of my repository. I want
to make sure entries in /tags are copyies of /trunk. I want to make sure
entries in /branches are copies of entries in /tags. I want to prevent
users from using mkdir/add to create these new entries instead.

One suggestion was to compare the output of "svn log" with and without
--stop-on-copy but this only works after the transaction has been
completed. I want to do something similar but in the pre-commit hook. I
cannot find similar functionality in "svnlook -t#".

I'm open to other suggestions. If there are none, I'm looking for someone
on the development side to say I should submit this as an issue.

Thanks in advance,

Paul
