Subversive: Change SVN commit message retroactively?

Actually I need to modify SVN commit message. A lot of related staff exists how to do it (e.g. Change SVN commit message retroactively?).

My question is, could I do it from Eclipse's subversive plugin?

Does svn allow editing commit message in history?

By default, the log message property (svn:log) cannot be edited once it is committed. That is because changes to revision properties (of which svn:log is one) cause the property's previous value to be permanently discarded, and Subversion tries to prevent you from doing this accidentally.

Is out of date svn commit failed?

An svn commit of the file will fail with an “out-of-date” error. The file should be updated first; an svn update command will attempt to merge the public changes with the local changes. If Subversion can't complete the merge in a plausible way automatically, it leaves it to the user to resolve the conflict.

As gouessej commented, for quick reference, the process for me was:

  1. Team > Show History
  2. Right click on an element in the list and select Set Commit Properties
