Also, you can also run 'svnadmin setlog repos -rN FILE', right on the
server.

note that when you 'undo' a commit in this way, you're not actually 
deleting history from the repository, but rather adding to it.  [your 
commit is still there in rX, reverted in r(X+1) ].

OTOH, when you change a log message this way, the old log message is
actually replaced with the new one, no history involved.

1. undo a commit: use 'svn merge' in reverse.  read chapter 4 of the
   book, section 4 in particular.

2. change a log message:  use 'svn propedit --revprop -rN svn:log'.
   Look at the side-box of chapter 6, section 2.2.
