I understand that the word 'useful' could be interpreted as opinionated, so I'll phrase this another way.

In GIT after using it for a year, i stumbled across

git log --decorate --graph --stat

Which produces a much more useful output than the default git log. However I only found this from a recommended video talk on GIT.

I have recently started learning SVN, the closest thing I have found is

svn log -l 4

I don't think this is particularly helpful. Is there an SVN command with various parameters (or linux commands) that would give a more helpful output? - svn info and svn status aside.

Most Subversion command-line client commands accept --verbose option which produces more detailed output.

Regarding svn log command, use --search and --search-and options. Using them you can search revision history by author, date, log message text and changed path. Moreover, it supports glob-syntax wildcards.
