For the future, I'd suggest setting up a post commit hook that sends an e-mail
to an internal mailing list. Our commit e-mails have the subject "[SVN]
<user> committed revision <revision>", the body is the log message from that
user and a list of the changes.

Change the [SVN] to something unique for you so that you can easily filter it
in you mailer and sort those mails into a separate mail folder. This make it
very easy to search for changes/log messages.

Our script looks like this:
---[SNIP]---
#!/bin/bash

REPOS="$1"
REV="$2"

TEMPFILE=`mktemp /tmp/postcommit.XXXXXX`

AUTHOR=`svnlook author "$1" -r $2`
if [ -z "$AUTHOR" ] ; then
    AUTHOR="<Unknown>" ;
fi

svnlook log "$1" >$TEMPFILE
echo "" >>$TEMPFILE
svnlook changed "$1" >>$TEMPFILE

cat $TEMPFILE | mail -s "[SVN] $AUTHOR committed revision $REV" \
        mailinglist@server
rm -f $TEMPFILE
---[SNIP]---

On a sidenote, maybe we should do "svnlook log $REPOS -r $REV" and "svnlook
changed $REPOS -r $REV" ? And ignore the fact that the mailing line is an
entry to the Useless Use of Cat Award ;-)

C'ya,
