Svn returns failure

Why svn refuses me?

I am trying to return to version 6253.

$ svn revert 6253
Skipped '6253'

I know that this is the version I want, because I typed the following in the shell less than an hour ago:

$ svn commit -m "before making change X"
Sending        scala/Config.scala
Sending        scala/Entity.scala
Transmitting file data ............
Committed revision 6253.

I think something is wrong with the repository, because I do not see my commit message as I type svn log. All I see is the first 3 commits ending in r5650.

svn revert discards local changes to your working copy, so it won’t do what you want, since the changes are already committed.

To get these files in this particular version, try svn update -r 6253 scala/Config.scala scala/Entity.scala.
