That's purty simple.

   http://.../ROOT_NAME/?view=rev&rev=REV

where ROOT_NAME is the name given that repository in viewcvs.conf (or
the physical basename of the repository directory if using a
SVNParentPath-like setup), and REV is the revision number.

That said, I still oppose going the route of integrations between
Subversion's scripts and third-party tools until we as a community do
the due diligence to make sure that every new integration doesn't
require yet another custom tweak.
