using external commit hooks to kick off build

[Sean]

Hi Christian,

Thanks for the advice..

I decided to just try and test I could get python hooks working at
all, but am getting this error on commit:

abort: commit.build hook is invalid (import of "hghooks.buildhook" failed)

I am not sure if this is a python syntax error or if hg can't find buildhook.py

I am quite sure it is in the PYTHONPATH.

Basically, all I've done is added this to your sample:

        for x in files:
            print x

Perhaps I am taking the rest of the sample too literally ?

Cheers

Sean
