readonly repo and echo for custom message

[matador <ma...@yahoo.com>]

making a repo read only so just a simple script for start-commit.bat.


<<

echo "this is read only"

exit 1

>>




this works fine in terms of blocking a commit but i dont get my error

message << this is read only >> in the svn client (tortoise)

 

did i miss something?

 

svn 1.1.4

apache 2.x

tortoise 1.3.0

Hi,

if you want to send text from a hook script back to the client, you have to
write
to stderr. On Windows it's the same as on Unix, so use:

echo "this is read only" 1>&2

Since you're using apache, you can also use mod_authz_svn with an
svnaccess.conf
file like this to make the repository read-only:

[myrepos:/]
* = r

Lieven.
