Hmm, if I run 'svn log' on my working copy I get your log message, and
even though it applies to only one file I don't know which file that
it. The rule you quote only makes sense if I'm running 'svn log' on
the file in question, but that's not the common case.

Please change the log message, it's very annoying to have log messages
that don't fit the pattern used by everyone else.
