Subversion post-commit hook
python, svn, svn-hooks, unix
Solution
Try adding an ampersand (`&`) after the line that calls your script to put it in the background and return immediately.
Problem
I have created a subversion post-commit hook to send out an email everytime a commit is made.Im calling a python script from the file post-commit in /var/svn/repos/hooks . ``` REPOS="$1" REV="$2" ~/svnnotify.py $REV ``` But the problem is that the svn commit command is taking a longer time to terminate as it waits for the python script to terminate first . Is there any way around this ? Thank You
