DESCRIPTION

Display the differences between two Targets. You can use svn-diff in the following ways:

  • Use just svn diff to display local modifications in a working copy.
  • Display the differences between two Targets, specified by -Old and -New parameters. The targets may be differ by Path, Url, and Revision. You may find more information about PoshSvn Targets system here: about_PoshSvnTarget.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

Compare BASE and your working copy (one of the most popular uses of svn-diff):

svn-diff COMMITTERS.md
Index: COMMITTERS.md
===================================================================
--- COMMITTERS.md	(revision 4404)
+++ COMMITTERS.md	(working copy)
...

Example 2

Compare BASE and your working copy (one of the most popular uses of svn-diff):

svn-diff -Old https://svn.example.com/repos/trunk/COMMITTERS@3000 `
         -New https://svn.example.com/repos/trunk/COMMITTERS@3000

Index: COMMITTERS
===================================================================
--- COMMITTERS	(revision 3000)
+++ COMMITTERS	(revision 3500)

Example 3

Or you may use a dictionary with parameters.

$parameters = @{
    Old = "https://svn.example.com/repos/trunk/COMMITTERS@3000"
    New = "https://svn.example.com/repos/trunk/COMMITTERS@3500"
}
svn-diff $parameters

Index: COMMITTERS
===================================================================
--- COMMITTERS	(revision 3000)
+++ COMMITTERS	(revision 3500)
