[svk-users] does svk support svn's "force-log"?

[Ruslan Zakirov]

I'm not an experienced svn user, but as far as I can see --force-log
is only required when you want to commit a change with log from a file
that is under version control as well. SVK allows you to do such
commits without any flags, just use option -F or --file.

svn:keywords property works for svk as well.

log from my console:
<<<
$> svk ci test.txt -F change.txt
Committed revision 1039.

$> cat test.txt
$LastChangedDate: 2008-03-06T00:02:12.933893Z $

$> svk add change.txt
A   change.txt

$> svk ci change.txt

Committed revision 1040.

$> echo "new change" >> test.txt

$> svk ci test.txt -F change.txt
Committed revision 1041.
