0. Start CMD.
1. cd c:\
2. svn co -N svn_url .
Don't forget the trailing dot. Checkout a directory without any files in it if you don't want to mess up your root dir.
3. mkdir foo
4. date > foo\a.txt
Hit return a few times to create the file.
5. svn add foo
6. svn diff
7. Boom. Specifically, from the event viewer:

If there are no changes to the workspace, "svn diff" doesn't fail:
a) svn revert -R .
b) svn diff
