Hook help
Hello .
I am trying to write a hook to prevent deletion of elements through a pre-commit hook.
My Plan is to execute "svn status" and then based on the o/p allow or deny.
But the problem is that the hook is being executed in the server and I see not now way to get the "working copy" path in the client machine which is required by the svn status command.
How do I come around this?
Do you have any examples?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Personally I run the svnlook changed command on the txn. This allows us to
see exactly what is being done on the changed files. If there is a delete
you can exit out and kill the commit. Here is the example written in
python:
look_cmd = "svnlook changed -t %s %s" % (txn, path)
for file in os.popen(look_cmd).readlines():
line = file.splitlines()).
chgedfiles.append(line))).
changedFile = str(line))).
changed = changedFile[6:-2] #This will show you what file is being
changed
action = changedFile[2:3] #This will show you what action is
being taken on the file. This includes: add, delete, and update.
print(changed)
print(action))
I later on block changes and deletes made only to tag directories.

The pre-commit hook will get two input parameters. The first is the
repostiory path, the second is the transaciton ID.
You need to pass this to svnlook:
svnlook diff c:\somerepository --transaction sometransactionId
This will allow you to watch the commit that's begin executed.
Have a look at the manual:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/index.html In this case you need
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.tk.svnlook
but if you have not yet read the entire manual, you really should, it
will save you a lot of time and headaches!**** DISCLAIMER ****

A different approach to solve the problem of tracking deletes
What we do is during the post-commit event, we identify the operation.
If the revision consists of a delete operation, we add buzz words such as
delete in the subject of the post-commit email.
In this way, developers have freedom to delete trivial stuff and at the same
time managers can track of deletes.

Max : What do you mean by bindings?
And also svnlook seems to give info about already commited stuff.. Svnlook changed gives me info abt previous commit... (unless I got everything wrong .. :-) )
Yes, I want to have deletion control on atleast one repo.

If you're not using the bindings you'd want svnlook, probably svnlook
diff.
But, do you really want such a hook? If a user has permission to add
stuff they should be allowed to also unwind any mistakes, providing it's
not a tag or something.
