How can I change the svn diff patch number of context lines?

Question

What I'm exactly looking for is: using svn diff, how to print more lines above and below the new code which is being added?

By default it will print some lines which are unchanged (both below/above the new code which is changed).

Is there any way to do it?

Answer 1

If you are on linux, tell your diff tool how many lines to include into result, for example 10:

svn diff --diff-cmd=diff -x -U10

Answer 2

You can do this within svn diff itself, which works on Windows too. Say you want 20 lines of context, you can do this:

svn diff -x -U20

Taken from svn diff how to only show changed line
