how to work with SVN properties(bugtraq:logregex)

I found a Eclipse plugin requiring the bugtraq:logregex of SVN properties. The bugtraq:logregex property suppose to be my Jira ticket ID. I am wondering how will this function works. Is that like this:

  1. Find the Jira ticket ID
  2. Add SVN properties bugtrap:logregex=JiraID by svn propset svn:bugtraq:logregex
  3. SVN Commit

However, I think my step 2 is setting properties to a file, I still do not know how to set SVN properties to the project. Besides, we are not using Tortoisesvn, and we use Subclipse in Eclipse.

Solution
    1. Modify your code
    2. svn add [files] in your command line
    3. Go to jira find your Jira ticket ID, for example "TASK-273"
    4. svn propset bugtraq:logrex "TASK-273" ./ (svn help propset for more info)
    5. svn commit -m "your commit message"
    6. Check if the SVN property has been successfully set by svn propget bugtraq:logrex
