Questions tagged [svn-hooks]

In Apache Subversion, a hook is a program triggered by some repository event, such as the creation of a new revision or the modification of an unversioned property. This is often used for integration of Subversion with other tools, e.g. bug tracking software.

Subversion hook is a program triggered by some repository event, such as the creation of a new revision or the modification of an unversioned property. This is often used for integration of Subversion with other tools, e.g. bug tracking software, for implementing custom policies and for e-mail notifications.

Hooks in Subversion are stored as a part of the repository on the Subversion server in a directory called "hooks". E.g. C:\Repositories\foobar\hooks\.
