Ok, I understand that.

I haven't gotten it to do something else, but what I would expect is for it to re-run the query as if I had marked the other branch as the "Mark for Compare". Let me restate my expectations from a command-line perspective. That will be more obvious.

Essentially what I did is:
svn diff --summarize svn://svnserv/ds/tags/ticket1 svn://svnserv/ds/branches/proj1

Which lists one "M" and one "D". That's fine. I understand why.

When I click the "<- ->" button, I'm expecting it to now run:
svn diff --summarize svn://svnserv/ds/branches/proj1 svn://svnserv/ds/tags/ticket1

and display those results, i.e. switching the url arguments, which results in two "A"'s and one "M".

Maybe I'm expecting too much from that button, but that was my expectation of functionality.
