why does "svn log" not show all log entries?

[Dave Hylands]

Hi Robert,

I accidentally replied just to you and so your reply was just to me.
This is going to the list as well.

busybox isn't the root of the tree. If you checkout higher up in the
tree then 15747 appears. The following directories appear beside
BusyBox:

NIST-PCTS/
buildroot/
busybox/
docs/
tinylogin/
uClibc/
uClibc++/
udhcp/
udhcp-web/

svn log -r 15747 -v

shows the following (which was outside the busybox tree which is why
you didn't the commit listed).

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r15747 | andersen | 2006-07-26 12:11:36 -0700 (Wed, 26 Jul 2006) | 5 lines
Changed paths:
   M /trunk/buildroot/package/tinyx/tinyx.mk

patch from Biucchi Gabriele:
Some programs (like rxvt) need x-includes and x-libraries in
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/X11R6/ , but tinyx.mk does not install anything there.
copy everything from $(TINYX_DIR)/exports/ into $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/X11R6/
