That is my understanding: On Fri, 2010-02-26 at 22:15 -0800, Alexey Neyman wrote: > It seems that I encountered a bug in 'svnlook pl --revprop': it fails with > the following message: > > $ svnlook pl --revprop -t 10547-86b /svn/test-svn > svnlook: Invalid revision number '-1' I can replicate this error message with svn 1.6.9 on Mac OS X. "svnlook pl -t" works fine, but "svnlook pl --revprop -t" complains that revision number '-1' is invalid, though I specified a correct in-progress transaction number. This pre-commit hook demonstrates the problem: #!/bin/sh REPO="$1" TXN="$2" SVNLOOK=/opt/local/bin/svnlook $SVNLOOK pl --revprop -t "$TXN" "$REPO" 1>&2 exit 1
