Compare not working in Eclipse Neon

Question

I am (finally) trying to upgrade to Eclipse Neon from Mars.2. After installing SVN support and the SVNKit (1.8.14) connector, I am able to access my repository. However Compare is not working.

If I right click a file that I have modified, and choose Compare with Base from Working Copy a dialog is displayed saying There are no differences between the selected inputs. If I choose Team-> Synchronize with Repository, the differences are shown in the Synchronization view. Differences are also shown when comparing to Local History.

If I use Tortise SVN from File Explorer the differences from the current version to the Base Working version are shown.

Anyone have a solution / suggestion to restore this critical function?

Resolved with the Subversion provider 4.0 update :

Help -> Install new software -> Add "http://download.eclipse.org/technology/subversive/4.0/update-site/" -> Select Subversion provider and update it.
