<p>Hi Julian,<br>
I reverted the commit, (nothing got broken ;)<br>
you don't need to (manually) create a diff for committing, only:<br>
</p>
<p> svn commit -m "your message"<br>
</p>
<p>I tested the cmd commit following <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.svn.c.commit.html">http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.svn.c.commit.html</a></p>
<p>If you want to limit to a file(s) you have to save the message in
a .txt (resulted in rBM4214):</p>
<p> svn commit -F "path-to/msg.txt"
"path-to/manual/editors/timeline.rst"</p>
<p>The wiki page is about Blenders source code repository (manual
related info is all in /about).<br>
I use Tortoise - can recommend it.</p>
<p>Please try again, <br>
Tobias<br>
</p>

<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" moz-do-not-send="true">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" moz-do-not-send="true">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>
