Examining the Repository: svnlook
svnlook is a command-line utility for examining different aspects of a Subversion
repository. It does not make any changes to the repository. svnlook is typically
used by the repository hooks, but a repository administrator might find it useful
for diagnostic purposes.
Since svnlook works via direct repository access (and thus can only be used on the
machine that holds the repository), it refers to the repository with a path, not a
URL.
If no revision or transaction is specified, svnlook defaults to the youngest (most
recent) revision of the repository.
svnlook Options
Options in svnlook are global, just as in svn and svnadmin; however, most
options apply to only one subcommand because the functionality of svnlook is
(intentionally) limited in scope.
--no-diff-deleted
Do not print differences for deleted files. The default behavior when a file is
deleted in a transaction/revision is to print the same differences that you
would see if you had left the file but removed all the content.
--revision rev, -r rev
Examine revision number rev.
--show-ids
Show the filesystem node revision IDs for each path in the filesystem tree.
--transaction tid, -t tid
Examine transaction ID tid.
--verbose
Show property values for the property-related commands, too. ...
