Description Tom Hosiawa 2005-01-16 17:11:02 UTC
Specifically, I'm trying to use post-commit to send out emails upon any commit to a repository.

In the hooks subdirectory of a repository, the file post-commit.tmpl contains commands needed for executation; specifically commit-email.pl and log-commit.py.  post-commit.tmpl is created when I create a new repository with svnadmin.

commit-email.pl is currently installed under /usr/share/doc/subversion-1.1.1-r3/tools/hook-scripts

That directory should either be added to the PATH variable, or the files in it should be installed into /usr/bin

Also, I can't find where log-commit is located. So I'm not sure if thats a bug with gentoo or with subversion. I'm guessing the latter. I'll ask about it on the subversion mailing list.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

I found out on the subversion users mailing list, log-commit is just a hypothetical example.

As said, they are examples, and provided as such. The fact that they are not executable is a security feature, not a bug. The idea is to think before adding these scripts.
