Submissions backed by version control

Hi,


I want to connect assignment submissions in Moodle with version control (SVN in our case), similar to what was asked here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=170619 (sadly, can't reply for some reason).


More specifically, what I want is the following: 

Student submits a solution via Moodle - solution is commited to SVN

Student commits a solution via SVN - solution is shown in Moodle


Is this possible in Moodle, via plugins for example? Pointers to similar plugins/ appropriate APIs would be much appreciated (completely new to Moodle). I am not sure atm how to handle the necessary synchronization.


I would further like to automate most of the administrative parts connected to SVN. That is, if a student enrolls in the course, we automatically create an account for the student (same credentials as login to moodle/ course) and a folder with correct permissions. Each assignment will create a new folder and may revoke writing access once the deadline has passed. is this feasible?

Thanks!


Kolja
