Subversion Log

The first place I looked for svn log syntax was the manual; see Examining History. E.g.

$ svn log
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r3 | sally | 2008-05-15 23:09:28 -0500 (Thu, 15 May 2008) | 1 line

Added include lines and corrected # of cheese slices.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r2 | harry | 2008-05-14 18:43:15 -0500 (Wed, 14 May 2008) | 1 line

Added main() methods.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r1 | sally | 2008-05-10 19:50:31 -0500 (Sat, 10 May 2008) | 1 line

Initial import
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Table 2.1. common log requests

Command	Description
svn log -r 5:19	Display logs for revisions 5 through 19 in chronological order
svn log -r 10:5	Display logs for revisions 5 through 19 in reverse chronological order
svn log -r 8	Display logs for revsion 8 only

You may specify a URL to look at revisions outside your workspace. E.g.

svn log --quiet -r {2015-10-01}:{2015-10-08} http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/

Alternative Using SVN Diff

svn diff --summarize -c 7400

svn-metrics.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Get the number of check-ins within a date range and get rid of the lines between them.
svn log --quiet -r {2015-09-15}:{2015-10-08} | grep ^r

# Roll that up into a total count
svn log --quiet -r {2015-09-15}:{2015-10-08} | grep ^r | wc -l
