Svn diff does not display modified external files

I add some changes to the local repo and run svn diff, but the output is diffempty. But svn statusmarked my files as modified. These files are external elements, how can I use the command diffwith this?

Here is a quote from the manual :

In addition to the svn checkout, svn update, svn switch, and svn export commands that actually manage non-overlapping (or disabled) subdirectories into which external items are checked, the svn status command also recognizes external definitions. It displays the X status code for disjoint external subdirectories, and then recurses into these subdirectories to display the state of the external elements themselves. You can pass the --ignore-externals option to any of these subcommands to turn off externals definition processing.

From the foregoing, we can conclude that only the mentioned commands support external ones.

I do not know why this is so, but I suspect that it was rather difficult to design correctly and was not high in the list of functions.

  • svn st -q SVN ( "" ).
  • grep '^[AM]' .
  • cut -c9- Deletes the metadata and then goes through the paths.
  • xargs svn diffruns svn difffor each file.
