Re: remove svn-commit.tmp after commit?

I think you'll get a bit of debate out of this...

First of all, imagine I am fixing a rather complex bug. I want to make
a few commits when fixing it. But, I want to use the same commit
remarks over and over ("BUG-1234: Partial fix.").

I create a file that contains my commit remarks, but when I commit, it
disappears.

You could limit this to files in the form of snv-commit[0-9].tmp, but
I think people will even argue that a revision control system
shouldn't delete a file unless it is specifically told to.

Personally, I've done the samething many, many times, and I hate it.
Fortunately, you can change the revprop svn:log and fix it. i've
gotten into the habit to do a "svn st" before I commit. Not does it
detect the svn-commit.tmp files, but it also will point out other
possible oases too.
