I am trying to run what is a basic diff of 2 tags in a repo, to see what
changes have occurred between the 2. But whenever I attempt to in cygwin I
get the below error. Is this a known issue, or do I need to set something
up specially to get this working. Sorry I am newish to cygwin as use Ubuntu
normally.
$ svn diff --summarize http://svn.xxxxxxxx/tags/xxxxx/public
http://svn.yyyyyyyy/tags/yyyyy/public
Unknown command: 'diff'
Type 'svn help' for usage.
Thankyou for your help,
Dan

My guess is that you have not installed the diffutils package. I would know
for sure had you followed problem reporting procedure at
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.

diffutils appears to be there, so I went to run cygcheck for you as per the
link you sent, but that doesn't appear to create a file on my c: amd just
returns several warnings along the lines of:
OpenService failed for
This is for things such as: DcomLaunch, odserv, ose, pla,QWAVE,
RpcEptMapper, RpcSs
Do I need to install a specific package for this to work?

No, you just need to follow the procedure as described in:
> Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html
Did you redirect the output, as in:
cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out
If yes, the output should be in the current directory. If you can't
find the file, try (from a Cygwin prompt)
cygcheck -s -v -r > `cygpath -D`/cygcheck.out
That would put the output on the desktop.
The warnings about OpenService are harmless.
Hope this helps,
Csaba

Okay, that seems much better, for some reason the file wasn't going onto the
root of c, but running it directly to desktop worked a treat, so have
attached the file now.
As a note, I had installed cygwin some time ago, but did not use it back
then, so if a fresh re-install is required, then I can do so.

If you run from the command prompt, then your current directory is
/home/dan, in other words, C:\cygwin\home\dan
You should find cygcheck.out from your earlier run, there.

If there is no C:\cygwin\bin\diff.exe then reinstalling the diffutils
package may help.
Run the Cygwin setup, find diffutils under Utils, and click on the
circular arrows until it says Reinstall.
Hope this helps,
Csaba
