I am investigating if an SCM-Manager upgrade from 1.55 to 2.46 is useful.  
The option to download a raw diff is missing in the newer versions.  
I use it a lot, and it would be nice and helpful to have it in a new version of SCM-Manager also.  
PS. i use SVN.

Hi @nilsjacobs ,

considering an update is definitely a good thought 🙂

Unfortunately we do not support diffs between explicit revisions for SVN, but you can load a raw diff for single revisions using the following URL:

[https://your-server/scm/api/v2/repositories/namespace/name/diff/42](https://your-server/scm/api/v2/repositories/namespace/name/diff/42)

or

[https://your-server/scm/api/v2/repositories/namespace/name/diff/42?format=GIT](https://your-server/scm/api/v2/repositories/namespace/name/diff/42?format=GIT)

to get a Git style diff (you’d have to replace “namespace” and “name” with the values for your repository).

Does this help?

Regards  
René

Hi @pfeuffer,  
Thank you for your answer.

- [https://your-server/scm/api/v2/repositories/namespace/name/diff/42](https://your-server/scm/api/v2/repositories/namespace/name/diff/42)  
This was exactly what i was looking for.  
It would have been even better (easier to use) if there was a button for it in the UI like in the V1 versions.  
Regards, Nils.
