Hi hari.
Thanks for the reply.
Client side is just not a solution.
one missconfigured client can make a versioning issue that will
eventually cost more then commercial VC software. :)
There must be a way to really hook the commit and not pre/post commit hooks.
Or, alternatively , to modify the raw data without committing in a
safe manner.
What about webdav? will svn let me overwrite files without commit this way ?
And the svnput.c Can I tweak it to let it just do the putting part
without the commit?

I suppose your team should have a build system -- a makefile, an ant file (or two) etc. Either you should incorporate the suggestions in the link (run 'svnversion' and write it into a file etc) in each of these build files or you should have a driver build file that drives each build file. And the 'svnversion' thing can be placed only into the driver build file.
