That's not only for diff programs, that would be for every program or
script that fires svn commands.

For example "svn print" would be useful for a program that generates
a blame log for a file, or that wants to generate a diff against a
file that is not in the repository.

I like the idea of "svn print" (but its syntax has to be sorted out first).
(IIRC Perforce provides a similar print command.)
