I want to be able to search within the commit logs of svn. I know you can do that on tortoise, but couldn't find a way using the command line.
We are moving to a two-tiered repository approach, so that the stable branch will only get stories fully completed and tested. To achieve that, we would need a way to search within the commit messages for the story code (eg:#s1322) and get a list of the revisions to be used in a subsequent merge command.
Ex: searchsvnapp http://[repo location root] #s1322
result: 4233,4249,4313

svn list --depth infinity <your-repo-here> to get a list of files in the repo, and then svn cat to get contents. You can add --xml key to list command to make parsing a bit simpler. Remember to use grep if you want to see 1 file, especially if you have thousands of files in the repository like the OP.
Check out files from Subversion repositoryIn the Get from Version Control dialog, click Add Repository Location and specify the repository URL. Click Check Out. In the dialog that opens, specify the destination directory where the local copy of the repository files will be created, and click OK.
For Subversion 1.8 The Natural Way (tm) is to use new options --search + --search-and for filtering logs
svn log --search #s1322 URL
And, BTW, each story can be separated into own branch - in this case detection of revision-range is not needed at all and you just merge branch

Wouldn't this work?
svn log | grep "something"
