Feature request: Configure hooks for server repository path

[Eugene Kotlyarov]

Hi

Currently you have to configure hook scripts for each checked out repository copy, this is inconvenient when you checkout same repository twice, or checkout several branches.

It would be nice to configure hook scripts for server repository path instead of local path, preferably with masks e.g. when hook is set for http://repository/* it will be called for all checked out copies that have server path below http://repository

See the docs:
http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-propertypage.html#tsvn-dug-propertypage-tsvn-props

You can specify the path to the hook script like this:
%REPOROOT%/trunk/contrib/hook-scripts/client-side/checkyear.js

Instead of %REPOROOT% you can also specify %REPOROOT+%. The + is used to
insert any number of folder paths necessary to find the script. This is
useful if you want to specify your script so that if you create a branch
the script is still found even though the url of the working copy is now
different. Using the example above, you would specify the path to the
script as %REPOROOT+%/contrib/hook-scripts/client-side/checkyear.js.

Thank you!

I'll investigate this solution.
Couple of problems with it however are
1. Since this is client side script not all users may need/want to use it.
2. Storing script in repository maybe inconvenient since it is not related to this repository project, and if there is a bug found in it, it will have to be updated in all branches where it is stored.
