Description

"svn log": the "Skipped <filename>" output is poor: I am left wondering why the
file was skipped.  If the file name is in svn:ignores it should silently ignore
it instead, otherwise it should be an error.  But if this message is to be
printed, it should at least indicate why the file was skipped, and it should go
to stderr, in the same way the "proplist" handles such warnings.

In fact, we need to make all subcommands handle unversioned files in the same
way (where applicable).
