There are certain commands like cat, info, ls and status that we do
not log in the console because they are run so often.

We should be using the local file as a known base so that SVN's
internal history tracing can find the item even if it has been moved
or renamed. If nothing else, we should be using the URL and revision
of the local file as a peg revision for finding the other revisions.

That is essentially what is happening.

By "goes wrong" you are only referring to the heading that appears in
the compare editor?

There are scenarios where we run diff or diff --summarize to first get
the list of differences, but eventually yes the files have to be
fetched and given to Eclipse to display graphically.

When showing history and in the affected paths pane, there is a known
URL and revision to retrieve so I would expect that open option uses
them to open the file.
