Hmmm, looking closer, maybe the problem is simply that you passed
the same URL twice? Each URL you specify is a diff target.
So if you pass the same target twice you will see the same diff twice.
As per the output of 'svn help diff', I am using this invocation:
1. diff [-c M | -r N[:M]] [TARGET[@REV]...]
and *not* this one:
3. diff OLD-URL[@OLDREV] NEW-URL[@NEWREV]
