What does 'svn log -v -r 739 svn+ssh://kitenet.net/home/svn/joey/' tell
you about the files that were changed in that revision? It seems like
something like:

$ svn diff -r 738:739
svn+ssh://kitenet.net/home/svn/joey/trunk/bin/cvsfix

should work... although if it isn't you might also try

$ svn diff -r 738:739 svn+ssh://kitenet.net/home/svn/joey/

if you don't know precisely what file changed, you can just diff the
whole repos for that revision, and it should show the change to that
file in the diff output.
