svnlook history

Is there any reason why the history command is part of svnlook?  This 
is a very useful feature that seems like it would be valuable to the 
clients of the repos not just the admins...

It would also be nice to see the log message as part of the history.

I know we use it regularly.  I have had to write a little script the 
client can run to get a revision number and log file comment history, 
but it is painfully slow due to the number of individual logins to the 
server.  I would be nice to have this as part of the native code...

#! /bin/ksh
set -A revnos $(ssh $1 svnlook history $2 $3 | grep -v REV | grep -v 
"-" | cut -d "/" -f 1)
for rev in ${revnos[*]} ; do
         echo "Revision: " $rev
         ssh $1 svnlook log $2 -r $rev
done

Wow, I forgot that command even existed.  It's the *perfect* workaround
for issue 1093, much easier than 'svn log -v'.

Cool... I had forgotten about svn log because I am so used to working 
with the admin side...

Thanks.

I considered moving (or at least copying) this functionality to 'svn
history', but now's not the time to do so.

That's what 'svn log' is for.  Even admins can use that.
