List of files changed since a certain date using SVN

svn log -r {2016-09-01}:{2011-09-04} > log.txt (only shows the revisions and comments but not the files list)

--verbose (or -v) flag and you'll get a list of all affected paths as well as the log messages. If you want to get rid of the messages, add the --quiet (or -q) flag
svn log -qv -r {2016-09-01}:{2011-09-04} > log.txt


If you just want each changed file printed once (rather than for each revision in which it was changed), you could also do:
svn diff --summarize -r {2016-09-01}:{2011-09-04} > log.txt
