Than you. I tested and the result is that the svn:eol-style property
has nothing to do with the problem, it is the "svn:keywords" property
and set on this file caused the strange behavior. After I removed the
"svn:keywords" property, 'svn diff' will give me expected result. But
I need my source files have a "svn:keywords" property, so I can add
$Id$ in each of these file. I still don't understand why the
"svn:keywords" property conflict with "svn diff' behavior. Do you
experts get a solution? Thanks in advance.
