[edit] How it works

Weak! It's just a big wrapper for the standard svn command-line client.

So this Ruby code:

revisions = scm.revisions(Time.utc(2007, 01, 10, 12, 34, 22))
revisions.each do |revision|
  pp revision
end

just runs this command in the background:

/home/tyler/code/gemables/svn-ruby tyler$ svn log --verbose  --revision {"2007-01-10 12:34:22"}:{"2036-01-01 00:00:00"} http://code/gemables
