There is also and option to install unix look-a-like system on windows, that will make porting shell scripts to Windows a bit easier, eg Cygwin or MKS toolkit.

Subject: Re: About pre-revprop-change
The example hook scripts are for non-Windows operating systems only.
On Windows, you'll have to rewrite them as batch files, or use another scripting language that you have available and with which you're familiar, like Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby... You would have to install these languages.
On Windows, there is no execute bit; Windows knows which files are executable based on the filename extension. On Windows, you can have a hook script in batch (.bat), VisualBasic (I forget the extension), or as a compiled executable (.exe). If you want to use another scripting language, you have to write a wrapper in one of the preceding supported types.
I haven't had to deploy any hook scripts on a Windows server so I cannot help you further than that. Maybe someone else on the list can provide more details if needed.
