diff on moved files

[Attila BODY <co...@freemail.hu>]

Hi all,

Assume you have a foo directory in the repository. In foo there is a
bar.c. Development goes on, bar.c changes several times.

Later you move the whole foo project under a "trunk" directory with "svn
mv foo  trunk" command. How can I get diff between a version before the
move and a version after the move? If I try "svn diff -r x:y bar.c" where
x is a version before the mv, i get a
"file:///path/to/repo/trunk/foo/bar.c was not found in the repository"
error message. svn log and svn blame works as supposed to work only diff
is not possible.

Thanks in advance,

Attila

You run 'svn diff URL1@X URL2@Y'.

This is a known shortcoming in 'svn diff'... it ought to follow
copy/move history automatically, but doesn't yet.   See issue 1093.
