Re: Seeking possible reason for error by diff -r PREV

Wrong. The first log entries may show branching, or in general the copying of
a parent directory of file.cpp. How you can locate direct changes on file.cpp
with "svn log", I don't know. I guess "svn log file.cpp -v" and find the
direct change in the change list. Incidentally, "svn log -r COMMITTED
configure_at_HEAD" doesn't work for me either, but I guess svn log simply
doesn't bother to trace the path from the peg revision.

"svn info -r COMMITTED file.cpp" is probably the quickest way and works fine
for me, both on svn 1.6.5 and 1.4.2. As does "svn diff -r PREV file.cpp".

Barring wiser advise on the list, I think your repository is corrupt. I would
"svnadmin dump" and load it somewhere else to figure that out.
