Re: Subversion, Linux, and pre-commit hook script - no workie

From: Mark <grimm26_at_gmail.com>

Neither pre-commit.py nor pre-commit.tmpl will run. It needs to be
exactly named pre-commit. pre-commit, in particular, need to exit
with 0 in order for the commit to be allowed. Anything else is
considered an error and the commit is abandoned.
