I'm not sure about the transaction number always having a dash but another
alternative approach could be to check the script name. So long as the script
is a link from post-commit/pre-commit then it's name will be different and
can be used to distinguish the two uses. I've used this trick so that one
shell script logs changes from a post-commit, post-revprop-change (which also
has different parameters) and CVS.
