svn diff line numbers

[abirami_n <ab...@hcl.com>]

Hi,

I am using svn diff command to get the diff between two files from
subversion.

I get the chunk header for the changed chunk.

But I am not finding any option to print line numbers.

Is it possible to get individual line numbers for all the changed lines?

The hunk (sic) header already includes that information: in "-a,b +c,d",
A and C are line numbers.  The output is in the standard unidiff format,
so if you want to add line numbers to every line, just pipe 'svn diff''s
output to any unidiff-aware program that shows or adds line numbers.
(I'm not aware of any off the top of my head, but it would be trivial to
write one.)

Cheers,

Daniel
