What do you mean by that? It won't kill your cat (probably ...) but
you should be aware that revision properties are not versioned. If you
change a log message it is changed for ever and there is no way to
recover the old version except from a separate repository backup which
has not been updated.

If you're the only one then that problem should not arise.
