I think using --diff-cmd is better, as Otavio suggests. The best way
would be to specify to svn to use the internal diff on the
command-line, something like "svn diff --diff-cmd internal", thereby
overriding any config settings. This doesn't seem possible though, as
I just asked on the #svn chat on IRC and no one was able to help, so
using an external diff command might be the only way.

Have you checked the effects of a user setting git's color.diff option
to 'always' in their .gitconfig file? I suspect the same error would
occur, but I don't have a git repository with a package in it to
check.

Thanks,
Cameron
