Two minor notes: 1. "^" serves as escape symbol in Windows command-line so there it needs to be quoted. E.g. this works: svn log "^/" 2. I think it would be a good idea to always add "--limit N" to the log command. > > Wondering if we should say "the full or ^/-abbreviated URL" so that > people who don't know what a URL is aren't mislead to think that ^/foo > is a URL. Maybe: [[[ If the current directory is a working copy you can abbreviate the URL to repository root as ^/ to save some typing. Note, that on Windows the "^" symbol is special one and must be quoted. E.g.: svn log "^/" --limit 10 ]]] > >> + <tt>svn log ^/trunk</tt></li> >> <li>Ask for just that file's log information, by running >> '<tt>svn log foo.c</tt>'.</li> >> <li>Update your working copy so it's all at r20, then run >> >> Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko
