Hello, I already posted this on the tortoise ML (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4061&dsMessageId=2906737) and the only answer I got was that this should be reported here. I've been reading you all since a while now, and actually registered on the tortoise ML to post this bug report, so I am aware that this may be (and as far as I can tell really looks like) a pure tortoise bug, but just in case this rings a bell here, I take the risk.
Also, since this may be usefull, the SVN server is 1.7.2 using TortoiseSVN 1.7.3, Build 22386 - 64 Bit. Here the original message : I was comparing a tag with trunk, this worked when I asked for the entire diff (~10mo), but got this when I only selected a subset of the files (I just selected all files listed in revision comparison and dropped two directories with their content in the list). Surprisingly, the diff continued to build after I clicked Ok on the error message, the exact same error poped up 6 more times, and the operation continued after I clicked ok again. It resulted in a ~3Mo diff file, which looks incomplete (the last working one was bigger). And even more surprising, I just do not have any D:\Development\ directory on my local win7x64, and the remote SVN is installed on free bsd so I really doubt that this path could come from there. --------------------------- Subversion Exception! --------------------------- Subversion encountered a serious problem.
