Don't.

Yes, and that's why you shouldn't do it. When the user commits a file
to the repository, upon completion of the commit, the version in their
WC should match what's in the repository. If you do this, that will be
broken.

IOW, you'll be forcing your users to run svn up after every commit,
because they won't have any idea what their file actually looks like
after the commit - which they should.
