Subversion multi checkout post-commit hook?

Question

The title must sound strange but I'm trying to achieve the following:

SVN repo location: /home/flx/svn/flxdev SVN repo "flxdev" structure:

 + Project1 ++ files + Project2 + Project3 + Project4 

I'm trying to set up a post-commit hook that automatically checks out on the other end when I do a commit.

The post-commit doc explicitly lists the following:

# POST-COMMIT HOOK # # The post-commit hook is invoked after a commit. Subversion runs # this hook by invoking a program (script, executable, binary, etc.) # named 'post-commit' (for which this file is a template) with the # following ordered arguments: # # [1] REPOS-PATH (the path to this repository) # [2] REV (the number of the revision just committed) 

So I made the following command to test:

REPOS="$1" REV="$2" echo "Updated project $REPOS to $REV" 

However when I edit files in Project1 for example, this outputs "Updated project /home/flx/svn/flxdev to 1016"

I'd like this to be: "Updated project Project1 to 1016"

Having this variable allows me to specify to do different actions per project post-commit. How can I specify the project parameter?

Thanks!

Use svnlook.

Quick and dirty would be to try something like:

REPOS="$1" REV="$2" CHANGED_DIRS="`/usr/bin/svnlook -r $REV dirs-changed $REPOS`" echo "Updated paths $CHANGED_DIRS in revision $REV" 

You may want to try running svnlook help; it will list out the various commands you can use/information you can get.
