How do I alias commands in svn?

I want to add some aliases for svn command in macOS system. For example:

svn ci "Some message" // equal to svn commit -m "Some message"
svn addall // equal to svn add --force * --auto-props --parents --depth infinity -q

What have I do to achieve this?

I am newb in svn, previously I use git and all aliases were created in .gitconfig file. Is this possible in the same way in svn?

UPDATE

Regarding this answer note, after adding the following lines in ~/.subversion/config file :

alias ciam = "commit -m" 

[alias]
ciam = commit -m

the command:

svn ciam

still not working.

Is it another way possible to define svn aliases?

You would need to define bash aliases (and not svn configs), as the ones proposed in xentek's gist

# add everything that needs to be added based on results of svn status
alias svnadd="svn st | grep \? | awk '''{print \"svn add \"$2 }''' | bash"

In this answer, for instance:

added an alias to ~/.bashrc: 

alias svn-add-unversioned="svn st | grep '^\?' | sed 's/^\? *//' | xargs -I% svn add %"

Now I just type svn-a and hit tab, enter!

In your case, you can define alias svnaddall to your command (mentioned in "How do I SVN add all unversioned files to SVN?").

Note: that are subversion config file (~/.subversion/config or /etc/subversion/config), but it won't include alias definition.
