Hi Stefan, Thanks for your reply.
I used SVN for around 2 years in one of the organizations where I worked. There I had moved from CVS to SVN and I really liked it. At present I am contributing to one of the projects in Gnome and I am using Git there. I didn't use svn diff with other diff tool. I used vimdiff then and directly used to diff from .svn directory. But later I got to know that I could make use of -diff-cmd=vimdiff $6 $7. I shall look into the community guide and figure out things Regards, Satabdi On Mon, Dec 3, 2012 at 12:15 AM, Stefan Sperling <s...@elego.de> wrote: > On Sun, Dec 02, 2012 at 10:55:23PM +0530, Satabdi Das wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I am interested in contributing to Subversion.
