#!/bin/sh # PRE-COMMIT HOOK # # The pre-commit hook is invoked before a Subversion txn is # committed. Subversion runs this hook by invoking a program # (script, executable, binary, etc.) named `pre-commit' (for which # this file is a template), with the following ordered arguments: # # [1] REPOS-PATH (the path to this repository) # [2] TXN-NAME (the name of the txn about to be committed) # # If the hook program exits with success, the txn is committed; but # if it exits with failure (non-zero), the txn is aborted and no # commit takes place. The hook program can use the `svnlook' # utility to help it examine the txn. # # On a Unix system, the normal procedure is to have `pre-commit' # invoke other programs to do the real work, though it may do the # work itself too. # # *** NOTE: THE HOOK PROGRAM MUST NOT MODIFY THE TXN. *** # This is why we recommend using the read-only `svnlook' utility. # In the future, Subversion may enforce the rule that pre-commit # hooks should not modify txns, or else come up with a mechanism # to make it safe to do so (by informing the committing client of # the changes). However, right now neither mechanism is # implemented, so hook writers just have to be careful. # # Note that `pre-commit' must be executable by the user(s) who will # invoke it (typically the user httpd runs as), and that user must # have filesystem-level permission to access the repository. # # On a Windows system, you should name the hook program # `pre-commit.bat' or `pre-commit.exe', # but the basic idea is the same. # # Here is an example hook script, for a Unix /bin/sh interpreter: REPOS="$1" TXN="$2" # Make sure that the log message contains some text. SVNLOOK=/usr/local/bin/svnlook LOG=`$SVNLOOK log -t "$TXN" "$REPOS"` echo "$LOG" | grep "[a-zA-Z0-9]" > /dev/null || exit 1 # Check that the author of this commit has the rights to perform # the commit on the files and directories being modified. commit-access-control.pl "$REPOS" "$TXN" commit-access-control.cfg || exit 1 # All checks passed, so allow the commit. exit 0
