If this is the case, does "svn diff" help you? Let's say just before your vacation, the en-file is in revision 101. After you back to online, the en-file revision is in 105. You may issue "svn diff -r 101:105 en-file "and you get the "size" of differences. > > The difference between revision numbers gives a false impression about > how far out of sync a file is.
