On the client, "svn diff" takes a --diff-cmd switch which allows you to
use a different diff tool when displaying differences on the client.
"svn update" takes a --diff3-cmd switch which allows you to use a 3-way
merge tool other than the one built into Subversion. These are all
client-side only, they won't change the way Subversion stores deltas
internally (binary diffs between revisions).

Maybe this answers your question, maybe not! Is plain old text merging
not sufficient for OpenOffice's file format?

Cheers,
Mike.
