This is a good place to ask the question. You're right, Subversion doesn't have a search feature. There are third-party products you can use for that. You could even build one. They work by indexing your commits as they happen, using a post-commit hook. FishEye is a commenrial product I've heard of that I think does what you want (though I've never used it), but I'm sure there are others, possibly even open source or at least free ones. http://www.atlassian.com/software/fisheye/overview > What I would like is to be able to look in a whole project the commits with a > particular comment (may be with reguar expression).

This specific feature is usually implemented the other way around: in a post-commit hook, you parse the commit message for the ticket number. If found, you insert a comment into the ticket (hopefully your issue tracker has an API to do that) linking back to this revision (in a web-based Subversion revision viewer, which you'll probably also want a separate piece of software for, such as WebSVN, Trac, ViewVC, etc.).
