For a given SVN repository I need to determine a list of all users who ever committed anything to that repository. This repository is not the only one on the SVN server, but the list should be restricted to that repository.

Can you parse svn log for the users that have committed changes? Or is checking out the repo not an option? – vgm64 Apr 13 '10 at 4:41
Also, do you have python? =) – vgm64 Apr 13 '10 at 4:42

While I started rewriting my python parsing, I realized a much better way to do what you asked (I parsed names and dates of submission to calculate weekend/weekday submission ratios to see who had no life!)

Check out the repo, then go to it and execute:

svn log | grep '^r[0-9]' | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq

That gets a list of all the changes that have been commited, greps for the lines that start with the revision and number (r[12341] | author | date-and-stuff... ), prints out the third field (author), sorts the authors and gets rid of duplicates.
