Hi,  Am using Svnserve in my windows machine.  i have used some file read & write operation in my post-commit.exe ...   Is Subversion hooks runs in a server context ? or client context ?  If it is client content, Is any permission problems occur during file read & write in post-commit.exe ?   Thanks in advance.

It runs in server context and in the context of user who owns the svn server process.

   Hooks run on the server, under the user account that the service is running, with an empty environment (%PATH% is empty, for example).    As with everything else, it's documented in the manual. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.reposadmin.create.html#svn.reposadmin.create.hooks
