svnlook diff fails on binary files:

It looks like diff is being called on for binary files in svnlook.
This will mess up our commit emails when binary files are added or
modified in the repos.

rm -fr repos r
svnadmin create repos
svn co file://`pwd`/repos r
cd r
dd if=/dev/urandom of=file bs=1024 count=1
svn add file
svn ci -m ''
cd ..
svnlook repos diff

This generates:

Checked out revision 0.
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
A (bin) file
Adding (bin) file
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 1.
Added: file
==============================================================================
Binary files file (original) and file differ
svn: Error calling external program
svn: /usr/bin/diff returned 2

Best,
Blair
