    I added login message size to my SVN as a property thinking this would help but Ankh seems to override it? I'm new to SVN and ankh - but this would be a great enhancement.

    We use a pre-commit-hook on the repo itself. This prevents them circumventing it with tortoise.

    @echo off
    SET SVNLOOK=svnlook.exe
    SET GREP=grep.exe

    REM Prevent changes to tags.
    ("%svnlook%" changed -t %2 %1 | "%grep%" "^U.*/tags/") && (echo Cannot commit an update to a tag.>&2 && exit 1)

    REM Prevent commits without comments.
    ("%svnlook%" log -t %2 %1 | "%grep%" "[a-zA-Z0-9]") || (echo You must specify a comment for all actions.>&2 && exit 1)

    exit 0
