Re: Access rights in SVN

Well, my Perl pre-commit hook script can handle "A" and "D", but not
"B" or "C". However, it shouldn't take much tweaking to get it to work
with "B" and "C". I just never did it because I never saw a need for
it. I bet the same is true for the standard Python hook.

The only problem is that renames and moves are as if you did and "Add"
and a "Delete". So, groups "B" and "C" won't be able to do renames.
Plus, group "B" won't be able to create branches or tags.

If you are a Perl nut, you can have my pre-commit hook and modify it.
If you prefer Python, take a look at the one in the contrib directory
of the Subversion repository.
