obtaining changed files between two dates

[Glenn Carr <GC...@ConnectShip.com>]

As part of our nightly build, I'd like to list the files that have changed
in the last 24 hours.  I'm on W2K.  From the docs it appears that I should
be able to do something like this:

svnlook changed -r {2004-5-12}:{2004-5-13}

But, I get this error:

svn: Transaction '(null)' is not based on a revision; how odd

I've tried several variations of this, all with the same results.  What am I
missing?  Is this possible?

Thanks,
Glenn

svnlook does not handle ranges or dates.  Because it uses atoi the
resulting revision number from the above or any other non-integer is 0.
Which of course has no transaction.

You can do this with the client with:
svn log -vq -r {2004-05-12}:{2004-05-13}

(note months and days need to be 0 padded or you'll get a syntax error).
