Why won't this work? I use 'patch' all the time on Windows 2000. So
let me repeat for Windows users:

   (go get patch.exe)
   $ cd working_copy
   $ svn diff > ~/my-changes
   $ cd ..
   $ move working_copy working_copy.busted
   $ svn co http://repos_url working_copy
   $ cd working_copy
   $ patch -p0 < ~/my-changes
