Henri Yandell commented on INFRA-210:
-------------------------------------

Did something happen on this, or did it stagnate?

>          Key: INFRA-210
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-210
>      Project: Infrastructure
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: Subversion
>     Versions: unspecified
>  Environment: Unix-like operating systems
>     Reporter: Daniel Quinlan
>      Fix For: unspecified

>
> It is no longer possible to apply svn commit messages as reverse or forward diffs, the old
> svn commit messages were much useful as a developer.
> People use SVN commit messages when reviewing changes (both r-t-c and c-t-r).
> They are easier to use for certain development activities *and* people have access to them when
> disconnected from the network (unlike "svn diff" for past/future versions and viewcvs).
> svnmailer should be fixed so that they are not unnecessarily encoded with quoted-printable and
> so that they can be applied in most circumstances as diffs with little or no effort.
