Tortoise SVN

Description

This persistence technique uses a feature in Tortoise SVN called "hook scripts" as a persistence trigger. Upon a target user connecting to an SVN repo to perform an action (e.g., SVN Update), it will execute a system command that you provided. In this module you just need to provide a system command to execute.
