Re: Restrict Commit Files Types

Dears,

I am try to write the hook script for pre-commit event, I use svnlook change
to see the files going to commit.
And grep thier name to see is it ends with the certain file type...

But I need to return to the client for the violation, I am writing with bash
shell script.
How can I return the error message to the STDERR? Since the examples in
subversion official site are written in python or perl.

Thank you very much!!
