In fact:
It works fine here: $ svnlook changed -r3 repos _U trunk/alpha $ svnlook propget repos foo /trunk/alpha bar$ Note that the trailing '$' above is my shell prompt. Maybe the prop value 'bar' does not end with a newline, and that somehow affects the output in your environment? Does it work as expected if you append a newline to the property value? Or if you redirect the output to a file?
