Perform SVN log without update

Question

It seems that performing svn log gives me outdated information, unless I do an svn update first. But sometimes I don't want to update. Is there any way to get an up to date log (at least regarding my own commits) without updating?

Try:

svn log -r 1:HEAD /path/to/working/copy

Replace revision numbers to your liking.

Valid options:
  -r [--revision] ARG      : ARG (some commands also take ARG1:ARG2 range)
                             A revision argument can be one of:
                                NUMBER       revision number
                                '{' DATE '}' revision at start of the date
                                'HEAD'       latest in repository
                                'BASE'       base rev of item's working copy
                                'COMMITTED'  last commit at or before BASE
                                'PREV'       revision just before COMMITTED

Thank you. I notice that this gives the newest entries at the bottom, not at the top like a reagular log does. Is that a bug or an oversight on my part?

@dotancohen: Use svn log -r HEAD:1 /path/to/working/copy for reverse order.

Using svn log -r HEAD:BASE -l 10 will get you everything committed since your working copy.
