I would like to have such a feature as well, but I think the diffs
produced by for example the 'Create Patch' command, are created by the
SVN library, not by TSVN. And I'm not sure if the SVN libraries can be
asked to diff two files that are not inside a Working Copy.

AFAIK TMerge uses its own mechanism to visualise the differences
between two files and they are not necessarily shown in the same way
as the unified diff output that SVN would produce.
