Hi Ute. The basic strategy is:

- call "svnlook changed" on the transaction to see what files are
being changed in the transaction
- call "svnlook cat" on each file to get the contents and perform
your checks

Here's an example that does some checking on committed Java files;
might be a good starting point for your script:
