title: Subversion - Is it possible to disable all commits and make the repository read only?
body: <p>I have a subversion repository that is a mirror of another remote repository. I use svnsync to mirror the repository every week. The mirrored repository (local copy) is only there for backup.  </p>
  
  <p>I would like to keep the mirrored repository as READ-ONLY, i.e. nobody should be able to commit any changes to this repository but they can use it for reading source files as it is faster than the remote repository.</p>
  
  <p>I had a look around on Google and it seems that a Hook is probably the best option. The only problem is that all of the examples i am seeing on Google are Unix based and i cant find a suitable example for Windows as the mirrored repository is running on a Windows Server. </p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
