Hi all,

I have a system where there is a "trunk" and a branch called "branchX".  I have 
checked out branchX and merged the trunk code into branchX on my working copy.  
I am trying to diff my working copy against trunk like so:
     svn diff --old=http://path-to-dir/myDirectory --new=myDirectory

the diff compares branchX WITHOUT the modifications in my working copy and 
shows many differences.

The working copy is definitely identical to trunk becaue when I use the unix 
style diff (see below) there are absolutely no differences.

     diff -rux ".svn" myDirectory /home/mark/myDirectory

Is it possible to diff a working copy against code in another branch (trunk in 
this case)?  Or is it expected to checkout trunk and use a diff utility every 
time?

I'm using svn 1.6.5.

Thanks,
Mark
