Is this a client limitation or a limitation of the repository (or server)?
I've been mucking about with using FSVS recently, which uses the SVN
libraries and stores things in a SVN repository. And looking through my
revision history, I've managed to create empty commits (no changes) with
their own log messages. At least, when using TSVN -> ViewLog it looks
like the revision is empty except for the message.
