limiting logs and diffs to specific nodes
Is there a way to limit logs and diffs to specific nodes?
For instance, say I want all log messages or all diffs from 0:HEAD, but only
for specific files and/or directories in a repository. Is there a way to get
this without parsing the log/diff output(s) myself?

Well, if people would show interest, at least we'd reopen the feature
request in the issue tracker.
I don't have any need for this particular option on log or diff, but I
had a request some time ago from one of my colleagues for an exclude
option on svn export and checkout.
His situation was a nightly buildserver building some 40 applications.
Each application has the same folder setup in the repository, containing
a large doc folder (for requirements, design documentation etc.). To
save disk space and minimize export time he'd like that exclude option
to export all but that doc folder.

For what it's worth, the only thing that's going to have a measurable
impact on whether that feature request gets implemented is if someone
steps up and volunteers to spec it out and implement it. Lots of
people saying "yes, I'd use that" is nice and all, but it's all kind
of pointless without someone who's willing to write down exactly how
it should work and then actually write the code. If you are willing
to do either of thise things, the dev@ list is just down the hall,
first door on the left.

Does anyone really want this feature (besides me)? Anyone really exited
about it?
If so, speak up, and issue 2609 will have a better chance of becoming
implemented.

For future reference, I filed issue #2609, "limiting logs and diffs to
specific nodes". I gave it the same summary as the subject of this email
thread.

Ok, good to know; thank you. I'll file a feature request.

Unfortunately no, you can include multiple paths, but there's no way
to exclude them.

Sorry, I asked wrong. Let me try again using an example or two. Given
this repository layout:
`-- myrepo
|-- branches
|-- tags
`-- trunk
|-- doc
|-- lib
`-- src
What I'd like to be able to do is basically show logs for all nodes,
but filter out "lib", ala:
svn log --exclude=myrepo/trunk/lib myrepo/trunk
Similarly for "diff":
svn diff --exclude=myrepo/trunk/lib myrepo/trunk

Uhh, how about svn log svn://server/repos/path/to/file/or/directory?
