I'm referring to files with an 'R' status in 'svn log'. I want to see the changes between the new file, and the file that it replaced.
I can use 'svn cat' to get the old file and then compare it to the new one, but I am hoping there is a way to have SVN run the diff for me in one step like it can for comparing two revisions of the same file (actually I use TortoiseSVN most of the time, but I'd be willing to drop to the command line for this task if needed). We have a directory that collects files from various projects in the repository for building release loadsets for an embedded target, and I've been using 'svn copy' to replace those files in order to see the pedigree of the file more easily, but since I did it this way, I didn't notice when I removed an update somebody made directly to a file in that location instead of making it in the project folder it belonged in.
