A few months ago it has been suggested that you can define what editor
you use with the SVN_EDITOR (or EDITOR or VISUAL) environment variable.

If you define SVN_EDITOR to be a script that writes the new content to
the file passed, you can easily use that trick.

The other options is using a language binding, that passes a base
version to the api.

See http://subversion.tigris.org/links.html#bindings for a list of
bindings. (I know SharpSvn allows you to set a property over an url).

Just before I send this mail I remembered to look at 'svnmucc', and it
looks like that is an easier solution to this question.

svnmucc propset NAME VALUE URL

should do what you asked.
