post-commit question

Hello,

I have a post-commit script that looks like this:

--------------------8<---------------------

export PYTHONSTARTUP=/etc/pythonstart
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/local/lib/svn-python

REPOS="$1"
REV="$2"

/usr/local/bin/svn update /mnt/LatestAndGreatest/

/usr/bin/python $REPOS/hooks/mailer.py commit "$REPOS" "$REV" $REPOS/hooks/mailer.conf

--------------------8<---------------------

As you can see, it is a simple script. It is suppose to automatically update the LatestAndGreatest working copy of the repository and email information to the needed recipients.

The problem I am having is that the call to 'svn update' hangs. I can execute the post-commit script on it's own, and it will update the LastestAndGreatest working copy just fine. But, when the post-commit script is executed via SVN, it hangs. I have executed the script as myself, root, as well as the svn user and it works every time. Just not via SVN...

Any ideas?

Thanks.
