Re: svn log get revisions by date

So my understanding is that when you specify a date range it gets the earliest date and the latest date of the range. Then it finds the revision numbers corresponding to those two revision times and gives you all revisions listed between those two revision numbers.

Makes sense in theory but has proven to be a little unreliable.

The problem is when your dates get out of order from the revisions.
For example, if r100 has a date of 2007, while r1 is of 2008, you get
into this problem.

If you do one cvs2svn conversion, and use an empty repository, and do
not import multiple cvs2svn runs into the same repository, you should
be fine.
