It appears that the way you typed this that branch/tag1 and branch/tag2 are in
your working copy. That's probably not the case.

You could do this though:

svn diff --old=http://my.svnrepo.com/branch/tag1 \
  --new=http://my.svnrepo.com/branch/tag2

This would perform a diff between HEAD revisions of each branch in the repo.
