Reading svn commit messages from the console

Once I needed to display log message on the SVN server side (in my svn hook) by a given repository path on the computer. For this case you can use:

 svnlook -r 105 log C:\Repositories\unit-tests-repo

I know, that you asked the question 8 years ago, but probably my answer can help another people.

svn log — Display commit log messages. This should work with the switch -r or --revision to display commit message for a particular revision

svn log --revision 16
