Svn diff –r 29:30 new_file.txt
Subversion knows the history, so it knows to find the old rev by its old name.

Svn cat file_name :-)
More precisely, if you want to see the contents of a file deleted in rev 30, do “svn cat file_name_at_29”. That says “look for the thing that in rev 29 had name “file_name”.
