However, the command line diff shows the entire contents being changed with spaces between every character. So "End Class" reads "E n d C l a s s", etc.. Diffing a merge post-rev# 3341 show the same spaces between every letter.

Sounds like you've converted the file from UTF-8 to UTF-16.

> Another strange thing is it's marking these as lines 20,032 and 20,058. But in Notepad++ they are lines 10,026 and 10,031. The line numbers in pre-rev# 3341 diffs match up between the Notepad++ and command line fine.

Sounds like the line endings changed as well.
