I use that tool. If you just have one branch, it works. With the commit-hook, which also updates the metadata, you have current permission tracking. There is a lack of a checkout-hook, which sets the permissions, so you have to remeber todo a metastore -a after you checked out a revision. But if you have several branches which fork the master branch and try to rebase the branches on master, you get trouble, because the metadata gets corrupted somehow. I will think about a solution on this sometime.
