Re: How to compare working copy file with older version of that file?

svnadmin verify passes. It also seems to work if you use the
URL_at_rev notation:

   $ svn cat -r 2068 svn://lnxdb/devicemaster/ecos/ecosapps/branches/MatrixSSL/matrixssl/src/matrixConfig.h
   svn: File not found: revision 1972, path '/ecos/ecosapps/trunk/matrixssl/src/matrixConfig.h'
   
   $ svn cat svn://lnxdb/devicemaster/ecos/ecosapps/branches/MatrixSSL/matrixssl/src/matrixConfig.h_at_2068 | head -n5
   /*
    * matrixConfig.h
    * Release $Name: MATRIXSSL_2_1_7_COMM $
    *
    * Configuration settings for building the MatrixSSL library.

Smartsvn is able to view old version of the file, but rapidsvn
and esvn can't.

What's really annoying is that I can't compare the working
version of a file with older revisions of that file using the
normal sytax of

   svn diff -r <whatever> filename

BTW, I have same problem with all files that have been added to
that branch. Files that were copied when the branch was
created are fine.

What do I do to fix this?
