Code sniffer SVN pre commit hook - php

Question

I have been trying to get code sniffer to act as a svn pre-commit hook following the guide from pear. However while i am 100% certain my code should be invalid i get no errors and the project commits without problem.
Is there something else that needs to be done besides following the guide given by pear?
Link to pear guide on code sniffer as pre-commit hook

And my pre-commit file from subversion:
#!/bin/sh
# PRE-COMMIT HOOK
#
# The pre-commit hook is invoked before a Subversion txn is
# committed. Subversion runs this hook by invoking a program
# (script, executable, binary, etc.) named 'pre-commit' (for which
# this file is a template), with the following ordered arguments:
#
# [1] REPOS-PATH (the path to this repository)
# [2] TXN-NAME (the name of the txn about to be committed)
#
# [STDIN] LOCK-TOKENS ** the lock tokens are passed via STDIN.
#
# If STDIN contains the line "LOCK-TOKENS:\n" (the "\n" denotes a
# single newline), the lines following it are the lock tokens for
# this commit. The end of the list is marked by a line containing
# only a newline character.
#
# Each lock token line consists of a URI-escaped path, followed
# by the separator character '|', followed by the lock token string,
# followed by a newline.
#
# The default working directory for the invocation is undefined, so
# the program should set one explicitly if it cares.
#
# If the hook program exits with success, the txn is committed; but
# if it exits with failure (non-zero), the txn is aborted, no commit
# takes place, and STDERR is returned to the client. The hook
# program can use the 'svnlook' utility to help it examine the txn.
#
# On a Unix system, the normal procedure is to have 'pre-commit'
# invoke other programs to do the real work, though it may do the
# work itself too.
#
# *** NOTE: THE HOOK PROGRAM MUST NOT MODIFY THE TXN, EXCEPT ***
# *** FOR REVISION PROPERTIES (like svn:log or svn:author). ***
#
# This is why we recommend using the read-only 'svnlook' utility.
# In the future, Subversion may enforce the rule that pre-commit
# hooks should not modify the versioned data in txns, or else come
# up with a mechanism to make it safe to do so (by informing the
# committing client of the changes). However, right now neither
# mechanism is implemented, so hook writers just have to be careful.
#
# Note that 'pre-commit' must be executable by the user(s) who will
# invoke it (typically the user httpd runs as), and that user must
# have filesystem-level permission to access the repository.
#
# On a Windows system, you should name the hook program
# 'pre-commit.bat' or 'pre-commit.exe',
# but the basic idea is the same.
#
# The hook program typically does not inherit the environment of
# its parent process. For example, a common problem is for the
# PATH environment variable to not be set to its usual value, so
# that subprograms fail to launch unless invoked via absolute path.
# If you're having unexpected problems with a hook program, the
# culprit may be unusual (or missing) environment variables.
#
# Here is an example hook script, for a Unix /bin/sh interpreter.
# For more examples and pre-written hooks, see those in
# the Subversion repository at
# http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/hook-scripts/ and
# http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/contrib/hook-scripts/
REPOS="$1"
TXN="$2"
# Make sure that the log message contains some text.
SVNLOOK=/usr/local/bin/svnlook
$SVNLOOK log -t "$TXN" "$REPOS" | \
grep "[a-zA-Z0-9]" > /dev/null || exit 1
# Check that the author of this commit has the rights to perform
# the commit on the files and directories being modified.
commit-access-control.pl "$REPOS" "$TXN" commit-access-control.cfg || exit 1
C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.3\scripts\phpcs-svn-pre-commit "$REPOS" -t "$TXN" >&2 || exit 1
# All checks passed, so allow the commit.

I am pretty new to both SVN and codesniffer so i am pretty much just following guides and running tests as i go along. Any advice or tips on getting this to work will be appreciated :)
UPDATE
I have managed to get some results out of my svn hook, it now however shows a list of errors based on the script. I am not familiar with the scripting language required for SVN so i have no clue how to solve these.
List of errors:
REPOS is not recognized as internal or external command
TXN is not recognized as internal or external command
unknown command '/usr/local/bin/svnlook'
$SVNLOOK is not recognized as internal or external command

Answer 1

Judging from your executable file path (C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.3\php.exe), I assume you are working on a Windows machine.
The pre-commit file in your question looks like a Linux Bash Shell script.
Bash has a different syntax from a batch file you would use under Windows.
I suggest you use a pre-commit.tmpl file made for a Windows machine.
You probably have onde of these in your hooks folder.
I use a Linux machine, so unfortunately I can't help you further on this search...
The pre-commit hook will look like this (excerpt taken from An Introduction to Subversion Hook Scripts on Windows):
#echo off
:: Stops commits that don't include a log message of at least 6 characters.
#echo off
setlocal
rem Subversion sends through the repository path and transaction id
set REPOS=%1
set TXN=%2
svnlook log %REPOS% -t %TXN% | findstr ...... > nul
if %errorlevel% gtr 0 (goto err) else exit 0
:err
echo --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1>&2
echo Your commit has been blocked because it didn't include a log message. 1>&2
echo Do the commit again, this time with a log message that describes your changes. 1>&2
echo --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1>&2
exit 1
