Re: Update working copy from hook script

You realize the the hooks are executed on the server machine and not
the client. This means that hooks do not have access to the user's
working directory where the original "svn co" took place.

Are you, by chance, executing your script on the client's machine
logged in as the client? That may be why your script works, but not as
a hook script.

That's why there's the "svnlook" command. It allows you to examine
various files without having a working copy.

I have a script that executes svn update, but it only works when I run it directly in the command line. It gets an error and stops when the hook script is called automatically by svn. I'm executing "SVNPATH/svn update fullPathToWC" but I'm not sure why it only works from command line.
