SVN command to show the Last Commit Author-CodePudding

So I am working with a very old svn running on an old jenkins server. I am trying to output/print the last commit author using svn command. So far I have tried - svn info --show-item last-changed-author But this doesn't work as my svn is too old and it gives following error-

  svn info --show-item last-changed-author
svn: invalid option: --show-item
Type 'svn help' for usage.

Could anyone please suggest me any other way to print/output the last commit author.

sed -n -e '/^Last Changed Author:/s/^[^:]*: //' -eta -eb -e:a -ep
