RE: incorrect diff / merge

Thanks for responding. I don't know exactly what diff parameters the
TortoiseSVN uses. But you are describing the exact issue I was having; the
entire block is chucked when it should have aligned the "while" and "if"
statements because white space is less valuable in programming than other
characters. I guess what I want is some parameter that allows me to favor
source-code type diffs.

You'll have to be a little more detailed about your problem. What command
are you running to get the diff? What are you getting back?
What are you *expecting* back?

The difference between those two fragments would usually (AKA as shown by
diff -u) show up as a complete removal of the first block, followed by an
addition of the whole second block. If that's not what you're diffing,
you'll need to tell us.
