Did you use the command line client for the diff? If not: please
describe the steps you took to do the diff with TSVN.

TSVN just starts WinDiff (or any other diff program you chose
in the settings) with the working copy file and the text base file.
If you do the command "compare with working copy" in the
log dialog then TSVN first does a 'svn cat' to get the file from
the revision you selected and then starts WinDiff.

Do you know the svn:eol-style property?
