Is there a way to add comments entered using TortoiseSVN during a commit to a C# source file?

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to capture all comments and dates entered by my team while committing their changes and append them to the source file (C#). I know svn:keywords allows you to capture some metadata but it gets updated each time a commit is executed.

In my previous job we had CVS configured to do exactly that. Was wondering if I can do the same with SVN.

Thanks.

Your best option is probably using pre-commit-hook.
