Good, it set the revprop on r40.

The log isn't showing you r40, it's showing you r8, which is the last
rev in which hallo_welt changed. Try running 'svn log -r40' to see
your new author.

You misspelled COMMITTED. Hence the 'syntax error'.

BASE means, "the BASE revision of some versioned item in the working
copy". But you're not talking about a working item here, you're
talking about a URL, hence the error.
