 In a Unix environment, the simplest way to configure explicit synchronization is by using the [trac:source:trunk/contrib/trac-svn-hook contrib/trac-svn-hook] script. `trac-svn-hook` starts `trac-admin` asynchronously to avoid slowing the commit and log editing operations. The script comes with a number of safety checks and usage advice. Output is written to a log file with prefix `svn-hooks-` in the environment `log` directory, which can make configuration issues easier to debug.
 
-Follow the help in the documentation header of the script to configure `trac-svn-hook`. There's no equivalent `trac-svn-hook.bat` for Windows yet, but the script can be run by Cygwin's bash. The documentation header of `trac-svn-hook` contains a Cygwin configuration example.

 Configuring the hook environment variables is even easier in Subversion 1.8 and later using the [http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.reposadmin.create.html#svn.reposadmin.hooks.configuration hook script environment] configuration. Rather than directly editing `trac-svn-hook` to set the environment variables, they can be configured through the repository `conf/hooks-env` file.
