Hi, Not much luck! If I put the text in the front, it is not being able to
process/recognize a multi word string and throwing error like below:

If I put the below message in the command line
 svn -m "jira:RTPS-9898 EPC 2021 install"  copy <src> <dst>

giving error:
 Unknown subcommand: 'EPC'.

Maybe you are using a more recent SVN version, where some bugs related to
this issue might have been fixed.

Thanks!
Ranajit
