svnlook is a command-line utility for
examining different aspects of a Subversion repository. It
does not make any changes to the repository–it's just
used for “peeking”.
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
like in svn and
svnadmin; however, most options only
apply to one subcommand since the functionality of
svnlook is (intentionally) limited in
scope.
--no-diff-deleted
Prevents svnlook from printing
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
(-r)
Specify a particular revision number that you wish
to examine.
--revprop
Operates on a revision property instead of a
property specific to a file or directory. This option
requires that you also pass a revision with the
--revision (-r)
option.
--transaction
(-t)
Specify a particular transaction ID that you wish to
examine.
--show-ids
Show the filesystem node revision IDs for each path in the filesystem
tree.
