Create a pre-commit hook that checks the value of the 'svn:log' property
on the pending transaction. In fact, I think that's the example we use
in the template for pre-commit hooks!

Yup:

REPOS="$1"
TXN="$2"
 
# Make sure that the log message contains some text.
SVNLOOK=/usr/local/bin/svnlook
LOG=`$SVNLOOK log -t "$TXN" "$REPOS"`
echo "$LOG" | grep "[a-zA-Z0-9]" > /dev/null || exit 1
