Answer 1

I'm using lsof (bash-script pre-commit):

srcip=$(/usr/sbin/lsof -Pn -p $PPID | grep ESTABLISHED)

or, to get only the IP:

srcip=$(/usr/sbin/lsof -Pn|grep ssh|grep ESTA|cut -d\> -f 2|cut -d: -f 1)

While client connects to server, pre-commit is executed. lsof shows all open files (including TCP connections etc); I select all "files" for this process (-p $PPID) and grep for ESTABLISHED (this is the connection between client and server).

Answer 2

Let me imagine that you write your hook in Perl, in that case, you can use the following lib : DocumentationClientIP

you can install the lib from Git thru this link : GITClientIP (or use the code included).

After installation, you need to add something like that in your code :

    use SVN::Utils::ClientIP qw(ssh_client_ip);

    print "The client's IP address is ", ssh_client_ip();
