one more question arose: when i just use the SVN_EDITOR shell variable in tcsh and then do a commit from the commandline, TM opens and I can enter the commit message. However, when I save the file, the terminal tells me that the message has not been changed and gives me the option to abort, continue and edit again. Isn't TM supposed to deliver the message to the svn client correctly after saving the opened message log file?
thanks again for helping Thomas Krajacic
