--limit doesn't work the way you say. If you run «svn log --limit=50 TARGET» and TARGET has been touched by at least 50 commits, you'll get 50 entries in the output, regardless of whether those 50 revisions were consecutive or not. In particular, «svn log -rHEAD:0 -l1» will _always_ print something.
