If it happens inadvertently, its possible to propset the log after the
fact using the --revprop switch like so:

svn ps -r N --revprop svn:log "This is the forgotten log message for
revision N."

If the log message is incorrect, it can be modified after the fact
using propedit instead:

svn pe -r N --revprop svn:log

The editor is defined in the environment variable SVN_EDITOR and can
be changed per taste.
