Um, you don't need to find back the last change in that branch. You
can just diff with -r N:N-1. The branch was the same just before the
change.

But as a direct answer to your question - svn info can give the last
revision a certain file was changed at - but it works only for the
current working copy. So you would have to update to revision N-1 for
a file to see when it last changed before that.
