This is one of the reasons I hate the way Subversion does tags!

What you can do is a "svn log -v --stop-on-copy" on the tag to get the
revision and the path that tag is from. You might have to do this
again if that tag is a copy of another tag. For example, we have build
tags and production tags, so if we were looking for the difference
between two production tags, we would have to do an "svn log -v" on
the production tag which gives us the URL and revision of the build
tag. Doing another "svn log -v" on the build tag would give us the URL
and revision you're looking for.

This isn't too bad to do manually, and you can script this, but it is a pain.

Anyway, once you have the revision numbers that the tags originated
from, you can then do a svn diff -rrev1:rev2 --summarize to get the
information you're looking for.
