Can I prevent push on a local repository?

Question

Currently my setup is this :

External SVN repository --> local svn working copy, transformed in a mercurial repository --> clone of this repository as subrepo in my application repo

The external SVN is a library which I don't have any privilege on.

Basically, I want to prevent pushing changes to my svn/hg hybrid repository, so the changes come only from the library's svn repository.

Is this possible?

You can use hooks in mercurial. For example in svnhgrepository/.hg/hgrc file, the following section will cause push from another repo to fail (using the prechangegroup hook).

[hooks]
prechangegroup = false
