What's that famous line, "I can't think of a need for local hooks, but I'll know it when I see it."

I think these are more for personal use, than group. There is no way to enforce that your whole team use TSVN (well, ok). But, maybe you have a personal use. Perhaps after an update you want to delete the build artifacts so your next compile is a full build. Or, you want to copy out certain files to some reference directory each time you do a commit, etc.

Right, TSVN hooks are only going to work when you use TSVN commands.
