Question

suppose that I have made some changes since last update (revert) to my a.b file.
this a.b file is also changed in the repository.
Now I want to compare the changes I made with the repos changes.

If I svn revert the file, I can see the changes between new and previous download (previous download doesn’t have my changes). How can I see differences between the repository changes and mine?

thanks

Answer 1

svn diff -r HEAD a.b

I think you have to specify the HEAD revision if something changes in the repository.

But now that I re-read your question, it looks like you:
made a change
committed the change
now want to view those changes

In that case, you can get your current revision number with

svn info a.b

subtract 1 from it, and use it in the svn diff.

for example, if your current revision is 100

svn diff -r 99:100
