The xrange built-in function will give you an iterator:

>>> for i in xrange(5, 10):
...     print i
... 
5
6
7
8
9

In your code it will iterate over revision numbers from repo[node]
(the revision number of the changeset that caused the hook to be
called) until len(repo) (the total number of revisions, i.e., 'tip').

That's good to hear!
