What I really wanted was the second entry in 'svn log file --limit 2'
without
having to search for the second entry (i.e. what I thought -rPREV would do)

I still wonder why making -rPREV be the previous change revision wouldn't
be a better solution. Since as you pointed out a file could not have changed
between "COMMITTED-1" and the previous change revision, commands like
diff would not be effected while log would work better.

In other words, isn't the last changed revision also "guaranteed to be the
version of the file just before the latest version"?
