We use one repository per project. All repository lives in /var/lib/svn/.
Also we use the hooks post-commit and pre-commit for every repository. Right
now we have to manually copy these two hooks whenever a new repository is
created.
For example:
cd /var/lib/svn/
cp /path-to-my-hooks/* projectA/hooks
cp /path-to-my-hooks/* projectB/hooks
cp /path-to-my-hooks/* projectC/hooks
Is there any way to automate this process?
As Andy said, you can write a script that creates the repository and then copies the
scripts, then make sure you call that script instead of calling "svnadmin
create" directly whenever you want a new repo. My version of this script creates the
repository as the Apache user and symlinks in my common hooks and conf directories. I
symlink instead of copying because I want all my repositories to always have the same
hooks and conf files, and I want changes I make in them to be reflected in existing
repositories. Here's my script:
#!/bin/bash
REPO="/path/to/subversion/repositories/$1"
USER="www"
if [ -e "$REPO" ]; then
echo "Repository \"$1\" already exists." 1>&2
exit 1
fi
sudo -u "$USER" svnadmin create "$REPO" || exit $?
sudo -u "$USER" rm -rf "$REPO"/{conf,hooks} || exit $?
sudo -u "$USER" ln -s ../../conf "$REPO" || exit $?
sudo -u "$USER" ln -s ../../hooks "$REPO" || exit $?
I also use a bash script replacement for svnadmin create and use a common hooks
directory.
This script will set the file permissions and make the hook symlinks even for a
repository that was created by the svnadmin create command. We use one
project/one repo and this makes repo creation a snap.
