Name
svnadmin setlog — Set the log-message on a revision.
Synopsis
svnadmin setlog REPOS_PATH -r REVISION FILE
Description
Set the log-message on revision REVISION to the
contents of FILE.
This is similar to using
svn propset
--revprop
to set the svn:log property
on a revision, except that you can also use the option
--bypass-hooks to avoid running any pre- or
post-commit hooks, which is useful if the modification of
revision properties has not been enabled in the pre-revprop-change
hook.
Warning
Revision properties are not under version control,
so this command will permanently overwrite the previous
log message.
Switches
--revision (-r) ARG
--bypass-hooks
Examples
Set the log message for revision 19 to the contents of
the file msg:
$ svnadmin setlog /usr/local/svn/repos/ -r 19 msg
