[<a href="http://developer.blender.org" target="_blank">developer.blender.org</a>] [Request, 2 lines] D3134: small syntactical
fix<br>

i have tried to figure out how to add this as a commit now that i
have been added to the documentation project, but i think i have
failed. i looked at the text on
<a class="m_5041649239113938754moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/about/contribute/patch_commit.html" target="_blank">https://docs.blender.org/<wbr>manual/en/dev/about/<wbr>contribute/patch_commit.html</a>,
but i cannot work how to get my diff into the svn (with which i am
very unfamiliar).<br>
<br>
i tried the following:<br>
<blockquote>C:\blender_docs>svn update<br>
Updating '.':<br>
At revision 4202.<br>
<br>
C:\blender_docs>svn diff > filename.diff<br>
<br>
C:\blender_docs>svn commit<br>
svn: E205007: Commit failed (details follow):<br>
svn: E205007: Could not use external editor to fetch log message;
consider setting the $SVN_EDITOR environment variable or using the
--message (-m) or --file (-F) options<br>
svn: E205007: None of the environment variables SVN_EDITOR, VISUAL
or EDITOR are set, and no 'editor-cmd' run-time configuration
option was found<br>
<br>
C:\blender_docs><br>
</blockquote>
i deliberately did not add a -m message as i was hoping that might
trigger some useful instruction, but the above did not help me. i am
not sure whether i really do need to set environment variables. <br>
<br>
instead of using the command line, i tried to use tortoisesvn.
however, on this page (which may or may not be relevant),
<a class="m_5041649239113938754moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Building_Blender/Windows/svn" target="_blank">https://wiki.blender.org/<wbr>index.php/Dev:Doc/Building_<wbr>Blender/Windows/svn</a>,
i read this:<br>
<blockquote>
<h2><span class="m_5041649239113938754mw-headline" id="m_5041649239113938754Using_TortoiseSVN" style="display:inline;padding-top:75px">Using TortoiseSVN</span></h2>
<p><b>Under no circumstances</b><span> </span>should you
set the SVN repository for the<span> </span><code>C:\blender-git</code><span> </span>folder,
because it could cause major conflicts with the git repository.</p>
</blockquote>
which stopped me in my tracks. causing conflicts is exactly what i
want to avoid. my tiny change is unlikely to do any damage, but i
really would appreciate some accurate and comprehensive instructions
on how to commit or 'land' my changes, ideally both from the command
line and with tortoisesvn.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
