This is great. Now if someone would give me an example how to check the
svn:needs-lock=true property, I would be off and running.

Here's the short answer - Don't write your own hooks (see below)!
Here's the explanation why:
http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2007-10/0498.shtml
Here's how to use someone else's hard work, so you have more time to
play [insert your favorite time waster here]:
Install SVN::Notify::Mirror[1] and SVN::Notify::Config[2]. Write a
post-commit file like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl -MSVN::Notify::Config=$0
--- #YAML:1.0
'':
PATH: "C:/Subversion/bin"
'path/in/repository':
handler: Mirror
minimal: 1
to: "/path/to/www/htdocs"
and you are done (if the repository is local to the destination that
is). If your Subversion server is Windows (my condolences), you are
going to have to write a CMD file wrapper.
You won't be able to use UNC paths from a service account on Windows
(because those are specifically limited to local machine access only).
You could use SVN::Notify::Mirror::SSH (if you can install SSH on the
remote server) which I have done quite successfully at my previous job.
Or you can prod me a little and I'll write an FTP subclass... ;-)
