Binary Files comparison
I am using Subversion (v1.2.0 on Linux) as SCM tool, Tortoise SVN (v 1.2.4)
as client.
I would like to make a comparison (diff) between binary files.
Are there any way (function, option) in Tortoise SVN to do that? If so,
which one?
Any help on this topic will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards.

This question would have been better to ask on the tsvn user list :)
Anyways, you can specify which diff tool to use per extension in
TortoiseSVN. This is done in the Diff Viewer section of the TSVN
Settings dialog. Click the Advanced button.

TortoiseSVN has its own mailing lists:
users@tortoisesvn.tigris.org.
TortoiseSVN does not come with any binary compare tools, but it does allow
you to plugin a custom diff tool by file type. As an example, it comes
pre-loaded with scripts to compare Word/Excel or OpenOffice documents
using the compare engines built into those tools.
