[bug-diffutils] Re: stop changing the whitespace in RELEASE-NOTES please

OK you little snots, I figured out what to do: use wdiff.
$ svn diff -r BASE:HEAD RELEASE-NOTES

And it even deals with the reformatted lines as mentioned previously in
this thread (
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.linguistics.wikipedia.technical/52150 ).

One wishes the diff man page would say SEE ALSO wdiff(1), and
visa-versa, lest I go every stupidly writing my own program again.
