Correcting missing log message

Hi

I have a file that I fumbled the log message for during $ svn ci

Is there any way of directly editing that in the 'database' please?

Kind regards
Martin

No! What a horrible idea.

There is a way to change the log message, using propset:

$ svn propset --revprop svn:log -r<revision> "New log message"

(or you can use propedit instead of propset).

However, your server has to be configured to allow modifications of
revision properties.
