Yup. Followed the procedure and it works from the command line. I traced the error through Net::SMTP to a call to "$obj->response" at that line, it never finishes Net::SMTP. The "response" is from Net::Cmd, so I'll have to trace it in there. I suspect that Net::Cmd croaks or something, and since the post-commit command never completes, Subversion gives me the MERGE error. Someone suggested I try Mail::Sendmail. I chose Net::SMTP because that's a standard Perl module, but if it doesn't work, I'll switch to Mail::Sendmail. -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
