Eclipse SVN comment templates

Question

Does anyone have some pointers to how to write SVN comment templates. I would like to include:

• the current date (YYYY-MM-DD)
• the author of the commit (author of the code)

Answer 1

1. Why you are making the change. Try to make this something that isn't obvious from reading the code. "fixed a typo" is preferable to changed "1 to 2".
2. If you are working on a defect, include the defect #
3. If you are working on an enhancement request or named feature or the like, include that as well.
