svn help diff
diff (di): Display the differences between two revisions or paths.
usage: 1. diff [-c M | -r N[:M]] [TARGET[@REV]...]
2. diff [-r N[:M]] --old=OLD-TGT[@OLDREV] [--new=NEW-TGT[@NEWREV]] /
[PATH...]
3. diff OLD-URL[@OLDREV] NEW-URL[@NEWREV]

1. Display the changes made to TARGETs as they are seen in REV between
two revisions. TARGETs may be all working copy paths or all URLs.
If TARGETs are working copy paths, N defaults to BASE and M to the
working copy; if URLs, N must be specified and M defaults to HEAD.
The '-c M' option is equivalent to '-r N:M' where N = M-1.
Using '-c -M' does the reverse: '-r M:N' where N = M-1.

2. Display the differences between OLD-TGT as it was seen in OLDREV and
NEW-TGT as it was seen in NEWREV. PATHs, if given, are relative to
OLD-TGT and NEW-TGT and restrict the output to differences for those
paths. OLD-TGT and NEW-TGT may be working copy paths or URL[@REV].
NEW-TGT defaults to OLD-TGT if not specified. -r N makes OLDREV default
to N, -r N:M makes OLDREV default to N and NEWREV default to M.

3. Shorthand for 'svn diff --old=OLD-URL[@OLDREV] --new=NEW-URL[@NEWREV]'

Use just 'svn diff' to display local modifications in a working copy.

Valid options:
-r [--revision] ARG : ARG (some commands also take ARG1:ARG2 range)
A revision argument can be one of:
NUMBER revision number
'{' DATE '}' revision at start of the date
'HEAD' latest in repository
'BASE' base rev of item's working copy
'COMMITTED' last commit at or before BASE
'PREV' revision just before COMMITTED
-c [--change] ARG : the change made by revision ARG (like -r ARG-1:ARG)
If ARG is negative this is like -r ARG:ARG-1
--old ARG : use ARG as the older target
--new ARG : use ARG as the newer target
-N [--non-recursive] : obsolete; try --depth=files or --depth=immediates
--depth ARG : limit operation by depth ARG ('empty', 'files',
'immediates', or 'infinity')
--diff-cmd ARG : use ARG as diff command
-x [--extensions] ARG : Default: '-u'. When Subversion is invoking an
external diff program, ARG is simply passed along
to the program. But when Subversion is using its
default internal diff implementation, or when
Subversion is displaying blame annotations, ARG
could be any of the following:
-u (--unified):
Output 3 lines of unified context.
-b (--ignore-space-change):
Ignore changes in the amount of white space.
-w (--ignore-all-space):
Ignore all white space.
--ignore-eol-style:
Ignore changes in EOL style.
-p (--show-c-function):
Show C function name in diff output.
--no-diff-deleted : do not print differences for deleted files
--notice-ancestry : notice ancestry when calculating differences
--summarize : show a summary of the results
--changelist ARG : operate only on members of changelist ARG
[aliases: --cl]
--force : force operation to run
--xml : output in XML

Global options:
--username ARG : specify a username ARG
--password ARG : specify a password ARG
--no-auth-cache : do not cache authentication tokens
--non-interactive : do no interactive prompting
--trust-server-cert : accept unknown SSL server certificates without
prompting (but only with '--non-interactive')
--config-dir ARG : read user configuration files from directory ARG
--config-option ARG : set user configuration option in the format:
FILE:SECTION:OPTION=[VALUE]
