Adding a file to repos with a post commit hook?

Aloha,

I'm working on a way to automatically compress / minify our javascript
files when committed, and want to run my current plan past the powers
that be. I'm thinking that this flow may work:

- commit files including a .js file

- post-commit hook checks the files committed for normal .js files, if
found:
     - grabs file, runs it through a minifier, and writes out
a .min.js file in the same location as the original .js script
     - then adds? and commits the .min.js file

Or, I might be crazy (not sure if I can get the hook script to
actually create/overwrite the existing file or do a add?/commit).
Basically, I don't want to have our devs to remember to compress the
files, and I want the compressed files saved in svn.

Does this seem cromulent? Or there a better way? Any advice would be
welcome, and if I get this working, I'd be happy to share the script.
