Searching Projects and Tags
Is there a way to search projects and tags to find a particular file?
I have a user who is convinced he added a file in one of a number of
simillar projects but can't find it.

No, there is no search feature. The design of such a feature is
currently being discussed on the development mailing list, but that
won't help you very much right now I imagine.

This doesn't help with searching for files that have been deleted,
whereas searching the log will find them.

I wrote a tool to help handle this.
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/svn_export_empty_files.py
It "exports" a directory tree of empty files. So you can easily use find to
find files with the name you are looking for. In our setup, I use cron to keep
the empty export directory up to date once a day.
The repository I was working with was too large to 'svn export', so I came up
with this solution.

Blair

No, but you can solve your real problem by searching the
output from "svn log -v url://repo/".
