AW: Automatically change property

Hi,

I won't say it's unnecessary but close to impossible - you *must* not alter the commit in a pre-commit hook or you may cause havoc. You may, however use a post-commit hook to make a separate commit to update the property - possibly leading to conflicts on pretty much every following commit. The best way to do this might be wrapping the commandline client in a script that updates the property just before the commit. But then you can't use subclipse, tortoise or anything else any more.

[sorry for top-posting, this outlook is way too stupid]

Betreff: Automatically change property
Hello all!
Is it possible to change a property via a hook script? We want to emulate a
CVS-like revision number by properties. So every file should get a property
called "Revision_Number" or something like that. The value of this prop
should be counted up every time a new version of this file is checked in
(like CVS/PVCS).
So every time a new version should be checked in, a script will check the
"Revision_Number"-property and will then increase it. 
I know man should not do this, but it was a concrete question of my boss. So
please don't say this is unnecessary, i know it.
Thank you for your answers!
