svn help ls
If you’ll use the URL of the repository branches root with verbose output, you’ll get something like this:
svn ls http://mayorat.ursinecorner.ru:8088/svn/Hello/branches/ --verbose 28 lazybadg фев 22 2011 ./ 28 lazybadg фев 22 2011 Leichtbau-Deutsch/ 26 lazybadg фев 22 2011 branche-francaise/ 25 lazybadg сен 14 2010 i18n/
The 3+4+5 field in gawk will give you the branch’s last-changed date.
svn help log
Slightly more complex and noisy output with a single advantage: a readable date,
svn log http://mayorat.ursinecorner.ru:8088/svn/Hello/branches/ -v -q ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r28 | lazybadger | 2011-02-22 09:24:04 +0600 (Вт, 22 фев 2011) Changed paths: M /branches/Leichtbau-Deutsch/Hello.de.txt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r27 | lazybadger | 2011-02-22 09:21:41 +0600 (Вт, 22 фев 2011) Changed paths: A /branches/Leichtbau-Deutsch (from /trunk:26) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r26 | lazybadger | 2011-02-22 06:49:41 +0600 (Вт, 22 фев 2011) Changed paths: A /branches/branche-francaise (from /trunk:25) M /branches/branche-francaise/Hello.fr.txt ------------------------------------------------------------------------
| grep -v “|” for excluding separation line, with <any tool of choice>, get affected branch from “Changed paths” filenames, date from the first string of the revision log.
