Umm, I hate to say it, but that's hideous. Shoving a huge amount of
crap that people don't need to see in the default output of svn diff
is absurd. Stick this sort of stuff in optional sections that are
skipped by default or something, or at least find a way to make it
look somewhat human readable. Just because we have a format doesn't
mean it's suitable for all uses, and the svn protocol is absolutely
not suitable for output in between unified diff sections in the
default output of svn diff.
