How to modify a meta-data in pre-commit hook

["MALCOR, Claire" <cl...@astrium.eads.net>]

Hello, 

I have installed SubVersion recently, and I try to develop a script in python with libsvn module.

I want to have this feature : 

$> svn co file
-> execution of the pre-commit hook
-> execution of the python script, and modification of the file meta - 
-> data 'FM' Commit completed

The script is executed by the pre-commit hook, but I don't know how to modify the meta-data. And the problem is that the commited file is locked by the commit action.

My configuration : 
SubVersion 1.3.1
Python 2.3 bindings
Windows XP :'(

Which functions of the python bindings can do that?
Does anyone can help me?

Thx

Claire

I assume you meant "svn ci file" and not "svn co file"

What meta-data are you trying to modify? Are you talking about  
revision properties, like svn:author, svn:date, svn:log, etc.? If so,  
that's fine, but you must not attempt to modify file contents or  
versioned properties like svn:eol-style or svn:mime-type because the  
working copy would then be out of sync with the repository and the wc  
would most likely break in mysterious ways.

What does it mean when you say the committed file is locked by the  
commit action? Where is it locked? Are you talking about a Subversion  
lock, or something else?
