Package: subversion
Version: 1.4.2dfsg1-2
Severity: normal

"svn diff" on a versioned symbolic link gives an error instead of
outputting the diff. Here's an example:

$ svnadmin create svn
$ svn co file://`pwd`/svn wc
Checked out revision 0.
$ cd wc
$ ln -s . foo
$ svn add foo
A         foo
$ svn diff
Index: foo
===================================================================
--- foo (revision 0)
+++ foo (revision 0)
@@ -0,0 +1 @@
+link .
\ No newline at end of file

Property changes on: foo
___________________________________________________________________
Name: svn:special
   + *

$ svn diff foo
svn: Unable to lock '.'
zsh: exit 1     svn diff foo

I've reported this problem in the Subversion dev mailing-list.
No answer yet.

Which was fixed upstream in 1.7.0.  Closing.
