How do you retrieve the commit message and file list for a particular revision?

Question

I need to deploy a few files that were checked in sometime ago (can't remember the exact ones), so I'm looking to get a list so I can deploy just those files. What is the svn command to do this?

Answer 1

Actually, svn log -v -r <#> http://my.svn.server/repository-root will work and show you all modified files within this repository. Or if you wanted this to work from within a working copy, you could use the output of svn info | grep Repository Root or something to find the actual repository root.

--verbose is the same as -v, and those options simply list all of the affected files.

Answer 2

svn log has a --verbose parameter. I don't have a repository here to test with, but does that return a list of modified files?

You can also use svn diff -r <revision> to retrieve the full change details, which you can parse or read manually to find out which files were changed.
