I agree it's helpful to have at least the subject of the JIRA in the log message, but IMO there should be nothing in the log message that is not in the JIRA and/or code comments.
The SVN log message should enable reviewers to understand the content of the commit but should otherwise be disposable. SVN log messages are not versioned, so can be permanently overwritten. Also we release source code, and if SVN log messages are necessary to understand the code, then the comments are insufficient. S.
