How to get diff between all files inside 2 folders that are on the web?

Solution 1:

Once you have the source trees, e.g.

diff -ENwbur repos1/ repos2/ 

Even better

diff -ENwbur repos1/ repos2/  | kompare -o -

and have a crack at it in a good gui tool :)

  • -Ewb ignore the bulk of whitespace changes
  • -N detect new files
  • -u unified
  • -r recurse

Solution 2:

You urls are not in the same repository, so you can't do it with the svn diff command.

svn: 'http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/boost/extension' isn't in the same repository as 'http://cloudobserver.googlecode.com/svn'

Another way you could do it, is export each repos using svn export, and then use the diff command to compare the 2 directories you exported.

// Export repositories
svn export http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/boost/extension/ repos1
svn export http://cloudobserver.googlecode.com/svn/branches/v0.4/Boost.Extension.Tutorial/libs/boost/extension/ repos2

// Compare exported directories
diff repos1 repos2 > file.diff
