Detecting whether a particular subversion URL's content has changed

[Graham Leggett <mi...@sharp.fm>]

Hi all,

I have a rather strange request, and the docs so far haven't uncovered 
anything I can use.

I have a number of projects within an svn repo, the documentation for 
which is built with maven plugins. Every night, the docs get rebuilt, so 
that up to date manuals are always available for trunk and all branches 
of our projects via http. The trouble is that all documentation is 
regenerated every night, which with a rapidly expanding list of 
branches, is a lot of unnecessary processing.

What I would like to do, is given an URL into a repository, I would like 
to get a list of all files that have changed recursively below that URL 
since the date/time specified. If the list is empty, there has been no 
change, and a script can decide not to regenerate documentation 
unnecessarily.

Is this possible somehow?

Regards,
Graham

This worked like a charm, thank you!

How about this:

$ svn log -r'{2005-10-07 00:00:00}':HEAD -v

(to answer the question "has anything changed since midnight?")
