...just to toss some random brainstorms into the mix here... To avoid svn-specific behavior, is there perhaps another file in the repository that we could use to compare timestamp against? I personally don't have an issue with tying things to svn -- I just think we might be able to do it otherwise. Even possibly "check files modified within the last NN hours". Also, instead of running/mailing the perlcritic tests on every checkin, we could perhaps set up a cron job to do it once per day. This would keep potential mail messages down, and may be easier to set up and control than a subversion hook. (I could fairly quickly set up such a system as part of the daily smoke tests that I already run from my box.) Again, just some random ideas... Pm
