It is documented behaviour, so it's expected by those who RTFM:

$ svn log --help
log: Show the log messages for a set of revision(s) and/or file(s).
usage: 1. log [PATH]
        2. log URL [PATH...]

   1. Print the log messages for a local PATH (default: '.').
      The default revision range is BASE:1.

   2. Print the log messages for the PATHs (default: '.') under URL.
      The default revision range is HEAD:1.

So if you want all lot messages without giving the URL, just ask for

svn log -rHEAD:1
