Not sure about your experience level, so here's a link to the Subversion book on how to implement hook scripts on the Subversion repository.

Basically, your going to want to use the post-commit.tmpl hook file, make a copy of it named post-commit and modify it to fit your needs. Make sure you have the appropriate permissions and ownership set right or your access method to the repository (Apache HTTD, svnserver, file) may cause the hook script to not be invoked.

You should be able to add the command you listed above to the hook script. If the hook script has problems executing that line, try using fully qualified paths to the executable and any arguments that should have it.

As side question, what are you hoping to accomplish with xterm -e unison & anyway?
