RE: Apache Subversion 1.7.7 - svn log issues
My very first commit consisted of 10 folders and 8 files. After this very commit if I run svn log -v --xml with the URL for a single file, the output lists data for all the rest of items under that commit. I was expecting the data from just the file for which I'm running the log command. My understanding of what is happening is this even if we run svn log for a single file, if the (subversion) selected revision involves other files and folders, the log command gives the xml data of all involved items. So svn log seems to run at revision-file level rather than at file-revision level. Assuming that my understanding is correct , I'd have wished the log to give the output of just what I asked for :-)) Best regards, Ramachandran Raghavendran IT Project Consultant Direct +91 44 4748 3961 * ramachandran.raghavend...@flsmidth.com -Original Message- From: Ryan Schmidt [mailto:subversion-20...@ryandesign.com] Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2013 12:18 AM To: Ramachandran Raghavendran Cc: users@subversion.apache.org Subject: Re: Apache Subversion 1.7.7 - svn log issues On Jan 31, 2013, at 22:40, Ramachandran Raghavendran wrote: I performed the very first commit into a repository and I'm running the svn log command at the file level (svn log -v --xml --stop-on-copy @URL PATH, where PATH represents a file).

If you want the log of a specific directory or file in the repository, then just list the complete URL of the directory or file inside the repository. For example, the URL of the Subversion repository used by all Apache Software Foundation projects is: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf To see the log of, say, the configure script of the Apache HTTP Server project, you would do: svn log http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/configure.in

If you don't want that information, don't supply the -v flag.

Apache Subversion 1.7.7 - svn log issues
Hi, I performed the very first commit into a repository and I'm running the svn log command at the file level (svn log -v --xml --stop-on-copy @URL PATH, where PATH represents a file). However this syntax lists all the changes to the URL. Have anybody encountered this behaviour . is this a bug? Best regards, Ramachandran Raghavendran
