'svn' is for clients. Try using 'svnlook' and the parameters that are
passed to the post-commit hook. Remember that no environment settings
are available in the hooks, so you must provide the full path to everything.

/path/to/svnlook log $1 -r $2 > /path/to/commitinfo.txt

No output from the hook script is sent back to the user. The
post-commit is usually used for sending emails or exporting committed
files to another location such as a web server, for example.
