Re: [Issue 422] Changed - "svn diff" needs to be fleshed out.

Philip, thanks for being so prompt about the `diff' stuff!  

On Saturday I was visiting Jim Blandy, who designed much of
Subversion, and we set up a Subversion client on his box and started
playing around.  Eventually we noticed that "svn diff -rX:Y URL" was
broken.  So we sent me an email to remind me to file an issue when I
got home... and now I see our bug report is already obsolete. :-)
