Description Jesse Glick 2009-04-02 23:01:52 UTC 
Currently the IDE uses the URI syntax

$repo/!svn/ver/$rev/$path

to load historical file contents for the purpose of displaying diffs. This generally works but is not guaranteed to do
so, according to

http://subversion.tigris.org/webdav-usage.html

because SVNSpecialURI could be changed.

For SVN 1.6 servers (see release notes in URL), could use

$repo/$path?p=$rev&r=$rev

Not clear how to decide which style to use - is there some quick way to check whether a server is 1.6+? mod_svn does not
seem to send a version header.
