How can I ignore eol changes and all white space in svn?

The svn command seems to honour only one -x option. This means, you must/can combine all options into one argument:

    svn diff -x "-w --ignore-eol-style"

I did not test whether this is also true for external diff-tools.


You can use external differencing tool with appropriate options (diff-cmd option in SVN config). Check this. Then you have freedom to set any diff tool and provide arguments to it. You can also use it directly:

svn diff --diff-cmd /usr/bin/diff --extensions "-b" -r 1143:1177 somefile

where -b to ignore white space at line end and consider all other sequences of one or more white space characters to be equivalent,
