Question: Is there a way to do a selective commit from command-line?

I would like to commit some, but not all of the modified files. I'm thinking in the lines of parsing the output of `svn status`.

Answer: 
```
svn commit -m 'Fixed bug 1234' file1.c file2.c directory/*.h

```
I have homemade recipe for this...

```
svn commit `cat change_list.txt` -m "Message"

```

The **` `** (as know as well as back-quotes) that serves to executes an "internal" command (inside other command).

**chance\_list.txt** is a file that contains in each a line a path to a file you want to commit.

For example, it contains the following text:

```
project/A.java
project/B.java

```

Instead of using the commit command specifying one by one the files, let the operating system do the "listing" for you by concatenating the list of files to the command using the above syntax.

So that way you could simply do the work and everybody is happy :)

Hope it helps!
