RE: Hook script questions

Ryan,

 This is exactly the help I was looking for. Thank you so much.

 I didn't figure it would be difficult. But as I said I'm not a coder so
thinking in terms of scripts is difficult for me.

Hi Linda! This can definitely be done. The basic strategy for the
post-commit hook would be:

* call "svnlook dirs-changed -r $REV $REPOS" (where $REV and $REPOS
are the parameters passed into the script, as in the example post-
commit hook) to get the list of directories that were changed by the
commit.

* examine each line of the output with for example grep to determine
if the path to your web site was affected

* if so, update a server-side working copy with "svn update"
