What version are you running? post-review 0.8 Please provide any additional information below. My SVN repository is protected by a HTTP-digest password. post-review runs "svn info" (get_repository_info method in postreview.py) so requires the user to already be logged in SVN or to be able to enter his password. I want Apache to run post-review in the post-commit hook of SVN. This causes problems since Apache is not and can't log in SVN that way (it can only access SVN directly via a local path). There should be a way to pass a SVN username and password to post-review. Note: this probably applies to other SCM as well
I am faced with the same problem - how can I log it in? otherwise it does not work at all... When I execute it from command line it asks me for password etc. Probably it does the same while executing by post hook, but who can "type" it in that case? :) Any other solution?
It's logical to have this functionality because from security POV I cannot make security hole by allowing without-password acccess to our SVN.
