Re: pre-commit hooks does not show any output

If the pre-coomit hook script returns with an exit code
which is not null, subversion will stop the commit and
print the error output of the pre-commit hook script.

The error output is printed below the two lines you got.
So for me it looks as if your hook script returns an exit
code which is not null but doesn't print anything to STDERR.

And please be aware that "For security reasons, the
Subversion repository executes hook scripts with an empty
environment—that is, no environment variables are set at all,
not even $PATH or %PATH%." (from the Subversion book)

I hope this will help you to solve your problem.
