There is no nice way to do this, sorry. Any output from the pre-commit hook is discarded if no error occurs. Usually notifications are sent from the post-commit hook not to the SVN client but to some other channel, such as a mailing list, a website, a feed, etc. For that purpose you might want to take a look at svnpubsub, see http://www.apache.org/dev/cms.html#svnpubsub and http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/server-side/svnpubsub/ If you really want the SVN client to display a custom message after every commit, as a crude workaround you could print the desired output to stderr from the post-commit hook and always exit 1 from the post-commit hook. But to the user this will always look like an error at first sight.
