I recently noticed that commits fail with the following error when the commit message is read from stdin (i.e. `svn ci -F -`) and the repository is being accessed using svn+ssh:
> svn ci -F - <creative log message here> ^D svn: Commit failed (details follow): svn: Can't write to connection: Broken pipe I tracked this down to a bug in APR where a child process's file descriptors won't be properly set up if the parent's stdin has already been closed. I've already filed a bug against APR for this: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51995 but thought I'd mention it here too since I noticed the error with svn. (As for why I wanted to pass the commit message on stdin in the first place, I'm using a custom emacs mode that lets me interactively choose which files to commit, and that's how it invokes svn to do the actual commit.)
