title: SVN post-commit script not being executed
body: <p>I have spent a couple weeks now trying to resolve this issue (without any progress).</p>
  
  <p>I followed the svn redbook section "Implementing Repository Hooks" by:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>copying the $REPOSITORY_HOME/hooks/post-commit.tmpl file to $REPOSITORY_HOME/hooks/post-commit </p></li>
  <li><p>making the $REPOSITORY_HOME/hooks/post-commit script executable by the account that runs either httpd or svnserve (in fact, I made it executable by everyone)</p></li>
  <li><p>verifying that my post-commit script can be run manually by that same user on the command line</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>However, the post-commit script still fails to be executed whenever any user commits any artifacts to the repository.</p>
  
  <p>One thing that I found within the svn redbook and the post-commit.tmpl that I am a bit confused of what exactly it is inferring is: 
  "Note that 'post-commit' must be executable by the user(s) who will invoke it (typically the user httpd runs as), and that user must have filesystem-level permission to access the repository."</p>
  
  <p>Does this mean that the user which executes the post-commit script must also be a user that can access the SVN repository (through an SVN client such as tortoiseSVN or rather a local user account that can access SVN's repository files through something such as putty).  I believe this may be where my problem resides, but am not exactly convinced because the user who runs the httpd is the owner of the post-commit script and the filesystem the repository resides on.  Therefore, he has all the permissions he needs to the filesystem.  However, I am not able to checkout directories/files from the repository remotely using tortoiseSVN on my workstation using that user account.</p>
  
  <p>Any insight is greatly appreciated!</p>
