I usually have just one working copy. If I come across a problem, I
fix it and try to recompile. If it works, fine. But if I should submit
a "diff -Naur" patch I need the old an the new file. The old file is
gone, of course, so I need a checkout of a second (original) working
copy to be able to "diff -Naur". I believe that that is completely
unnecessary, because the SVN working copy as well as the tla working
copy have the original files stored either in .svn or in the {arch}
subdirectories.
I just don't know how I would use "diff" in a convenient way. Could
somebody suggest something and put it onto the Wiki?

I don't have Subversion installed right now, so I can't check wether
this actually works, but according to the documentation the following
should do the trick:
svn diff --diff-cmd /usr/bin/diff -x "-Naur" some.foo.pamphlet
Of course, it is possible to specify the revisions to compare etc. For
more details, see http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/re09.html.

PS: If this is what you've been looking for, I'll put it on the wiki.
