Try "svn log -q -rHEAD URL". For example
$ svn log -q -rHEAD http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/

That's a bit painful to parse compared to the output of svnversion.
I'm running on Windows, no perl, no python, no bash, so the simplicity
of the output of svnversion was helpful.
It is also irritating in that if I don't give a URL to the root of the
repository the output may be quite different.
I think that this basic bit of information should be easy to get. Thus
my suggestion to allow a URL argument to svnversion.
