Ok - now I understand the thing about changing (at least for getting
info I am sure that I know how - its working), BUT
with the propset command I am not so successfull, because I am getting
such error:
----------------------------------
svn: DAV request failed; it's possible that the repository's
pre-revprop-change hook either failed or is non-existent
svn: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged
----------------------------------
So what I am missing or what I have to do additional to get this command
working ?
At least I have pre-revprop-change.tmpl file in hook folder, but I dont
understand - is this just a template and should be renamed/replaced or
some additional changes must be done so that this script starts to work.
