You are not right. I explain again and again. Look at common log message
in editor:

my log message\n
--This line, and those below, will be ignored--\n
\n
M a\n
EOF

Newline is added before EOF by mostly common editors. But this newline
is removed by subversion. Subversion keep newline before "--This line,
and those below, will be ignored--".

Please, read mail thread from the beginning before post new messages.
