We've gone another route: Create a "meta repository" which contains the hook scripts (and possibly conf/ directory), then after repository creation do mv hooks org.hooks svn co file://var/lib/svn/meta-repo/hooks mv conf org.conf svn co file://var/lib/svn/meta-repo/conf Easier updating later and no symlinks. :-) HTH, Tino. -- "What we nourish flourishes." - "Was wir nähren erblüht." www.tisc.de
