As mentioned by the style bot in comment #2, this ChangeLog is missing a bug URL. Please add the bug URL before landing.

Please use File::Spec->devnull() instead of hardcoding /dev/null since this script should be platform agnostic.

Ditto.

What are these warnings, can they fixed for good?

> What are these warnings, can they fixed for good?

svn propget warns if the property isn’t found:

$  svn propget myproperty .
svn: warning: W200017: Property 'myproperty' not found on ''
svn: E200000: A problem occurred; see other errors for details

I couldn’t find a way to fix it. One could avoid the warning by using svn proplist first to check for the property, but that seems unnecessarily more complex.
