This came up for me several months ago. I'm currently using 1.4.6 on a
Windows XP box.
I came to that conclusion that, without scripting, there is no another
way. Furthermore, if the file no longer exists because the folder was
deleted, parsing the log can be very tedious and error prone.
Here is the script I came up with...Windows batch file. Not very speedy
but it got me the answer I needed.
Can't guarentee that it's bug free but it worked enough for me...and
handles both cases where a file was deleted or a folder.

echo file = qualified file to search for (no leading slash or drive
letter )

echo url = url to Check

echo start rev = Starting revision number.

echo Ex: %0 mydir/include/thisfile.h http://server/repo/trunk 653

echo Repetitively executes:
echo svn info --revision x

I used the wrong filename for my test. It doesn't work. Sorry for the
spreading of false hope and the corresponding spurious spike in the
world happiness coefficient. =/
